Genesys CX Insights

Genesys Customer Experience Insights (Genesys CX Insights or sometimes GCXI) provides a presentation layer that extracts data from the Genesys Info Mart database, and presents it in readable historical reports to enable business and contact center managers to make better business decisions for streamlining operations, reducing costs, and providing better services.

Genesys CX Insights has replaced Genesys Interactive Insights (GI2) as the historical reporting presentation layer. See also Genesys Info Mart and Reporting and Analytics Aggregates (RAA).

When you create a user, you must add them to at least one user group, thereby controlling the user's ability to work with reports and dashboards. Normally, you can do this by assigning users to the predefined user groups described in this section. The group structure for user groups varies depending the release of Genesys CX Insights you have installed — ensure that you use the instructions from the section on this page that matches your software:

===Predefined user groups and privileges===
 +
If you require permissions different from those assigned to the predefined groups, Genesys recommends that you avoid modifying privileges for the predefined user groups, because these user groups are overwritten during upgrades. Instead, create custom groups by duplicating the user group you wish to modify, and edit the duplicate group. Note that the group structure in release 9.0.011 and later is unlike earlier releases of the software, and each group contains only users (and does not contain other groups).

Genesys CX Insights User Management

Important
This content may not be the latest Genesys Engage cloud content. To find the latest content, go to Genesys CX Insights User Management.


Genesys Customer Experience Insights (GCXI or Genesys CX Insights) provides Historical Reporting tools.

This page describes the steps you can take to create an account for a new user, change your password, or to change another user's password.

Managing your own account

This section provides information about managing your own account.

Video: Changing your own password

This video describes how to change your own password, if your permissions allow it.

Changing your own password

1

Use the following steps to change your password. Not all users are permitted to change their password; contact your administrator to find out if the functionality described on this page is available for your use.

Important
If you have forgotten your password, or otherwise cannot log in in, contact your administrator / next level of support.
  1. On the Genesys Engage cloud Portal, click All Apps > Reporting.
  2. At the Genesys CX Insights login screen, enter your user name and current password.
  3. On the Genesys CX Insights menu, click your user name, and click Preferences.
  4. Click Change Password.
  5. In the Old Password field, type your current password.
  6. In the New Password field, type your new password, and re-type it in the New Password Verification field.
    Passwords must be at least 8 characters, have at least one uppercase character, one lowercase character, and one number.
  7. Click Change Password.

Managing other users

Most users cannot manage their own accounts. As an administrator, you can do so for them, as described in this section.

Predefined User Groups

Predefined User Groups

When you create a user, you must add them to at least one user group, thereby controlling the user's ability to work with reports and dashboards. Normally, you can do this by assigning users to the predefined user groups described in this section.


Predefined user groups and privileges

If you require permissions different from those assigned to the predefined groups, Genesys recommends that you avoid modifying privileges for the predefined user groups, because these user groups are overwritten during upgrades. Instead, create custom groups by duplicating the user group you wish to modify, and edit the duplicate group. Note that the group structure in release 9.0.011 and later is unlike earlier releases of the software, and each group contains only users (and does not contain other groups).

{The User Groups table lists and describes the predefined GCXI user groups.

    • 'General' — membership in groups with this prefix allows users to work in any project.
    • 'iWD' — membership in groups with this prefix allows users to work within the iWD project only.

Single sign-on

When enabled, Single-sign on (SSO) allows logged-in users to navigate across multiple applications without re-entering their credentials.

The Configuration Server Access Groups table shows how Genesys CX Insights user groups map to Configuration Server Access Groups:

To learn more about Configuration Server Access Groups, talk to your Genesys representative.

Permissions needed to manage other users

To manage the accounts of other users, you must be a member of one of the Administrator user groups described in the following table, which describes the types of accounts each of the Administrator types can manage, and the actions they can carry out on each.

The following table describes the permissions needed to manage users.

Subtractive access rights

In Genesys CX Insights / Microstrategy, access rights are controlled using a subtractive model. User access rights are restricted based on group membership. If a user is a member of more than one group, then the access restrictions of the most restrictive group are enforced. For example, a user who is a member of the groups Tenant Developers and Tenant Editors, has the privileges of Tenant Editors only. For this reason, Genesys recommends that you make each user a member of exactly one Admin Group and / or one Reporting Group.

If you are accustomed to historical reporting in Genesys Interactive Insights (GI2) / Business Objects, note that GCXI uses an entirely different approach to limiting access, and while the term access restrictions in GCXI refers to access rights granted to user groups, the same term in GI2 refers to restrictions placed on objects, rows, query types, and connections in the GI2 universe.

Video: Managing users

This video describes how to manage users, including how to:

  • create users
  • delete users
  • change users' passwords
  • change users' permissions

Changing another user's password

1

Use the following steps to change a password for another user (for example when they have forgotten their password) or to otherwise manage an existing user account.

To edit another user's account, you must log in as a member of a group that has the Create And Edit Users And Groups privilege.

Tip
For users who are created without membership in any group other than Everyone, only the administrator who created the user can change the user's password. New users must always be members of at least one group, other than Everyone.
  1. In your web browser, open the MicroStrategy Web Administrator page:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrServerAdmin
  2. On the page that appears, select your server.
  3. On the MicroStrategy Web Administrator login screen, enter your user name and current password, and click Login. The Tools page opens.
  4. Click User Manager.
  5. Click a group of which the user is a member. A list appears, showing all the users in that group.
  6. Right-click the user's name, and in the menu, click Edit.
  7. In the Password field, enter the new password, and enter it again in the Confirm Password field.
  8. Select User must change password at next login, and make any other changes if required.
  9. Click OK.

Creating a new user

1

Use the following steps to create a new user account.

To edit another user's account, you must log in as a member of a group that has the Create And Edit Users And Groups privilege.

  1. In your web browser, open the MicroStrategy Web Administrator page:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrServerAdmin
  2. On the page that appears, select your server.
  3. On the MicroStrategy Web Administrator login screen, enter your user name and current password, and click Login. The Tools page opens.
  4. Click User Manager.
  5. On the menu, click Create New User.
  6. Specify user information as appropriate, on each tab in the editor. If you need more information about any field, see the MicroStrategy Web Administrator Help. Be sure to:
    1. Include a Login Name, Full Name, Password, Confirm Password and other selections in accordance with your password policies (on the General tab).

To edit another user's account, you must log in as a member of a group that has the Create And Edit Users And Groups privilege.

    http://<hostname>:<port>/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrServerAdmin
  2. On the page that appears, select your server.
  3. On the MicroStrategy Web Administrator login screen, enter your user name and current password, and click Login. The Tools page opens.
  4. Click User Manager.
  5. Open a group of which the user is a member, for example Everyone.
  6. Hover over the user you plan to delete, and click Delete.
  7. Click OK.
