Managing Your BarTender Cloud Account

The Manage Cloud Account view provides administrators and non-administrators with role-specific features, as follows:

  • Administrators can use all the property pages in this view to view and configure global account information; view usage statistics and print history data; view event log data; manage user accounts, groups, and roles; and register a web application that can be used to access the BarTender Cloud REST API to automate printing processes.

  • Non-administrators can use the General property page to view subscription information, use the My Profile property page to update their profile information and upload a profile image for themselves, and use the BarTender Cloud API property page to manage a private access token.

Administrators can display this view by clicking on the toolbar and then clicking Manage Cloud Account.

Non-administrators can display this view by clicking the main menu in the upper right corner of the BarTender Cloud window and then clicking My Profile.

Note:  Access to the BarTender Cloud REST API is included with the Automation subscription plan.
