The Users view allows you to add users to your Five account. By default, you will have a default Administrator user and a default Developer user out of the box. Each of these default users respectively have the Administrator role and the Developer role assigned to them.Creating a user in Five will require them to have a role assigned. Five has three inbuilt roles for you to select to assign to your Five users.
- Administrator
- Developer
- Control

While you are on the Users view in Five, you are adding users to your Five account, not your end-user applications.
Each role has different permissions granted. You can control who has access to what forms in Five with these roles. Five maintains these operations through the CRUD operations.
| Permission | Definition |
|---|---|
| Create | Allows users to create new records. |
| Read | Allows users to search and retrieve specific records and read their values. |
| Update | Allows users to modify existing records. |
| Delete | Allows users to delete existing records. |

This enables users to have access to the URL provided by you without having to log into your application. A public user will only have access to the tables that you assign to them. The public user is not used inside of Five itself, currently it is a user for your applications.Standalone User
The Standalone user is a reserved user for Five standalone applications. When Five is installed as a standalone application on Windows or Mac (not running as a service in the Cloud) the user will always be the standalone user.| Form | Permissions Granted |
