Assign Permissions to Sandbox User

Sandbox users with Instructor permissions can log in to MOTAR Sandbox and create training content. This is helpful to debug applications and simulations using the training scope. Sandbox users with U.S. Government permissions can log in to MOTAR Sandbox as a student.

Locate the Sandbox user that needs Instructor permissions. SELECT the CUSTOMIZE button on the Sandbox user card.

Each sandbox user will generate these access groups by default.

The sandbox user now has Instructor or student permissions and is ready to be used for testing content in the MOTAR Sandbox Training environment. A Sandbox Instructor can "Create a Course." An instructor who creates the course initially assumes the Course Owner & Course Manager Role.

Create Friendships

Friendships allow users to connect with their friends in an app. Additionally, users can be configured in the initial setup by an admin as "Friend Only" searchability, meaning only users connected as their "friend" on the platform can find them in search. As an end-user, you can update your profile settings to "Colleagues Only" which enables the same functionality described above.

SELECT the CUSTOMIZE button on the Sandbox user card. SELECT the FRIEND in the Customize menu.

SELECT the SANDBOX USER in the Friend window to create a friendship between the two sandbox users.

The sandbox user now has a Friend connection to another sandbox user. They will now show if a friend search API is used.
