From the left-side menu, select Services.
From here, you can access the following tabs:
  • Available Services: Used to deploy a new service.
  • Deployed Services: To manage existing services already deployed to the unit.

  2. (Optional) Modify the service category.
  3. Decide what roles or identities need access.

​
Manage services

Depending on the type of service you’ve deployed, you have different management tools available to you. Some services deploy clients to one or multiple workstations or require external accounts. To access all available and deployed services on your unit, you need the Services Management permission. To access and manage only specifically deployed services, you need the deployed service added to the Service Permissions list of your role.
