 Named Users are individually defined users, they are known to the system and belong to a 3D Mapping Cloud Account. They are identified by their unique email address and are part of one Account. These users can sign in and have access to the Console and the Viewer.
-Named Users have full access to the Viewer and all its capabilities and they can view Resources for which they have permission. Depending on their Role, they can additionally manage Resources, Publications, Shares on Resources and Publications, Users, and the organization’s Subscription.

 Named Users having the User Role “User Manager” can invite other Named Users to join the organization’s Account. Invited users receive an email to accept and complete the invitation process. There can be as many active Named Users as the organization’s Subscription permits. It is possible to upgrade or downgrade the subscription at any time. Named Users set to inactive are not counted.

+Orbit 3DM Cloud supports Bentley IMS to achieve SSO. \\
+Orbit 3DM Cloud can rely on Bentley IMS for authentication (who you are), but not for authorization (what you can do). \\ User access and user roles are required to be set within 3DM Cloud by the User Administrator.
+===== Publication Access and User identification =====
+It is possible to access a publication as A) Named User or B) Guest User. \\
+Guest User access can be B.1) anonymous or B.2) requiring User Identification.
+A Named User can have a specific Role and has reserved access to 3DM Cloud at all times. \\
+A Guest User access consumes a session from a pool of sessions.
+User Identification for Named Users (Option A) and Guest Users (Option B.2) can use the legacy Orbit Account Service or the Bentley IMS. \\
+To provide a Guest user with User Identification (Option B.2) access to a Publication, the 3DM Cloud Sharing Manager needs to add the user's email address to the Guest Users list of the Publication Share page.
+Depending on how a Publication is configured for sharing, there will be different prompted pop ups, indicating how a user should login. See example senario below:
