Setting Up AdminStudio Accounts

AdminStudio 2022 R2 User Guide

The Flexera Integrated Solution includes AdminStudio, App Portal, FlexNet Manager Suite, the Flexera Service Gateway, Workflow Manager, and ConfigMgr (Formerly called as System Center Configuration Manager) (SCCM). All of these products communicate over a company network to provide a complete packaging and deployment solution that tracks usage and reports licensing.

When setting up these integrated Flexera products, you need to give certain accounts enhanced permissions to other products. The following table lists the required permissions for AdminStudio accounts:

Need to make sure that AdminStudio users have access to the App Portal Web Site using Windows Authentication.

SQL Server

In order to connect to an AdminStudio Application Catalog database, users require db_datareader, db_datawriter, execute, and alter permissions on the AdminStudio database. For detailed instructions on assigning these permissions, see Required Permissions on Application Catalog Databases.

Tip:The AdminStudio user account does not require these permissions if connecting to SQL Server using an SQL Server user account (which already has the appropriate permissions).
