# Users
<a name="users"></a>

The Amazon DCV Access Console allows admins to manage users, their roles and their access to the Console. You cannot edit a user’s name or any of their parameters or delete a user directly from the Console.

On the **Users** page, you can view the users saved in your datastore and their detailed information. Users appear here if they have been directly imported from the Access Console, or have already logged in. For a complete list of users that are authorized to log into the Access Console, you must refer to your externally configured users datastore. For more information on how to configure your datastore, see [Datastore](datastore.md).

Before your users can connect to the Access Console, you must configure either Pluggable Authenticate Modules (PAM) Authentication, or HTTP Header authentication. See [Authentication Methods](console-authentication.md) for more information.
