# Adding Users

## Adding new users to your company

To add a **new user** to your company, you have to be a [#company-admin-accountadmin](https://docs.locoia.com/user-types#company-admin-accountadmin "mention")\
Go to [**Settings** - **Users**](https://app.locoia.com/#/settings/user) and click **Add**. Then add the user details and click on **Confirm**:

![New User](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/48089760906/original/h5e-11e1aAM5SbY1qeH_DkWywd0tK9uxYw.png?1614592894)

The User will then receive a temporary password via Email:

![Temporary Password](https://291121471-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-McrRFZHYH27bqKzOVDd%2Fuploads%2FEDc2UpAK8HvGfrJXrN9f%2Ftemporary_password.png?alt=media\&token=1e6b54ec-b9ef-4e94-b44e-724efa859668)

With the temporary password, the user can log in and has to change their password.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For security reasons, the temporary password expires after 24 hours. If the user has not logged in within that time, please delete the created user and create a new one, so that a new temporary password will be created.
{% endhint %}

## Bulk user creation and uploading

As an admin, you can also upload multiple users in one go. To do this, go to the [Flow Marketplace](https://app.locoia.com/#/flow-marketplace) and choose the **Bulk User creation based on Spreadsheet (XLSX) or CSV** flow copy it. Next, upload the below table example in an XLSX or CSV format under the [File Uploader](https://app.locoia.com/#/settings/file-uploader). It is important that you keep exactly the same headers and don't have any spaces in the header cell.

Give the file the reference name userUploadFile:

| title     | first\_name | last\_name | company\_id | email              | user\_type   | phone        | status |
| --------- | ----------- | ---------- | ----------- | ------------------ | ------------ | ------------ | ------ |
| Developer | Max         | Miller     | uuid4       | <some@email.de>    | user         | +49123456789 | active |
| CTO       | Frank       | Underwood  | uuid4       | <company@email.de> | accountAdmin | +49222456789 | active |

Afterward, check out the example of how variables are passed to the connector and just set up your [Connector Auth](https://docs.locoia.com/connectors/authentication/setting-up-authentication) for Locoia. Afterward, run the flow and your users are all created in bulk in just a few seconds.
