Login accounts overview

Last updated on 3 April 2026

Admin

The vault has users who must first authenticate themselves to M-Files Server. Before creating the users, you must create login accounts on M-Files Server. These login accounts are added to vaults as users. The same server login can be added to several vaults.

Login accounts are used for authenticating M-Files users to M-Files Server. They can be imported from a domain to M-Files Server. Login accounts are associated with vault-specific users.
