User Accounts#
You need a user account or API client account to use Hyperview. Every account is associated with a role that dictates how you can generally interact with assets, and which application features you will have access to.
Available roles are:
Note
All users (including those with read-only roles) can manage their account profile, saved searches, and asset watchlist.
