Manage users globally

A user is defined as any individual who can log in to Grafana. Each user is associated with a role that includes permissions. Permissions determine the tasks a user can perform in the system.

If you have [server administrator]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions.md#grafana-server-administrators">}}) permissions in Grafana, you can manage all users for a Grafana instance in the Server Admin section:

{{< section >}}

If you have [organization administrator]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions.md#organization-roles">}}) permissions and not [server administrator]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions.md#grafana-server-administrators">}}) permissions, refer to [Manage users in a organization]({{< relref "../../manage-users-and-permissions/manage-org-users/_index.md" >}}).

For more information about users and permissions, refer to [About users and permissions]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions">}}).
