## Creating or Updating Users in Rasa Enterprise

You can either create users from the UI or on the command line from within the Rasa Enterprise pod. The instructions below are for creating or updating users on the command line from within the Rasa Enterprise pod.

### 1. Get the name of the Rasa Enterprise pod:

- **Kubernetes**
- **OpenShift**

```bash
kubectl --namespace <your namespace> get pod -l app.kubernetes.io/component=rasa-x
```

The output should be similar to the following:

```
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE

rasa-rasa-x-6dcf57bb45-jnt4f 1/1 Running 2 17h
```

`rasa-rasa-x-6dcf57bb45-jnt4f` is in this case the name of the Rasa Enterprise container.

### 2. Connect to the shell of this pod:

- **Kubernetes**
- **OpenShift**

```bash
kubectl --namespace <your namespace> exec -it <name of the Rasa Enterprise pod> bash
```

### 3. Run the following command to create a new user:

Please see [Role-Based Access Control](https://legacy-docs-enterprise.rasa.com/docs/rasa-enterprise/1.1.x/user-guide/role-based-access-control#default-roles) for available default roles.

```bash
python scripts/manage_users.py create <username> <password> <role>
```

### 4. To update the password of an existing user:

(By default, the username for the single **Rasa Enterprise** user is `admin` and its role is `admin`.) Run the following command:

```bash
python scripts/manage_users.py create --update <username> <password> <role>
```

##### Note

If you created a deployment via `rasactl`, the namespace name is the same as the deployment name. You can use the `rasactl list` command to display available deployments.
