New Arable user accounts can be created by Org Admin and Team Admin users. 

If you are new to Arable and do not yet have login credentials, you will need to request to have an account created for you by a colleague with either Org Admin or Team Admin permission. 

Once your account has been created, you will receive an email with login instructions.

If the invitee is new to Arable, they will receive an email containing credentials and links to sign in. Current users will see all their Teams' devices when they sign in.

 

Orgs, Teams, & Roles

First, every Mark device belongs to an Org. Users with the role of Org Admin or Org Reader can see all the Org's devices. In this example below, both the Org Admin and Org Reader can see 8 Mark devices.

Org Admins can create Teams within the Org. Teams combine Members with Mark devices. In this example below, the Org Admin:

  • creates a Team and names it "Users"
  • adds a Mark device to the Team
  • invites a new Member (a person) to the Team

The Team "Users" now contains one member who can see the data from one Mark device. This Member cannot see the other 7 devices in the Org.

Next, the Org Admin adds two more people - a Team Admin, and another Member.

Next, the Org Admin creates two more Teams. Only the 3 new members of the "Ranch 1" Team can see that Team's 6 Mark devices. Similarly, only the 3 new members of the "Partners" Team can see its one Mark device.

Org Admins can also put one device into multiple Teams. Below, the Org Admin has now added 3 of the "Ranch 1" Team's Mark devices to the "Partners" Team. Both the "Ranch 1" Team and the "Partners" Team can see these same 3 devices.
