Real-Time Decisioning users are not the same as Marqeta Dashboard users. Access to the Real-Time Decisioning dashboard requires additional login credentials and an additional set of privileges that are unique to Real-Time Decisioning. To perform user and team management tasks, you must have the User Administrator privilege granted within Real-Time Decisioning.

When you create users you will also assign them privileges based on their roles—that is, will the user create rules, review and approve rules and push them to production, or manage user accounts.
-
The roles required to create rules are Analyst and Analytic Specialist. Users who will review, approve, and push rules into production need to Supervisor role.
-
For view only access to rules, assign the user the Analytic Specialist role.
-
The User Administrator role allows a user to manage users and teams.
-
The Superuser role grants all of the roles. This might be assigned to an IT administrator, or to a user who would handle rule updates in the case of a fraud attack where rules may need to be bypass the typical review process and instead be updated instantly.
To create a user:
-
From Settings > Teams, select Create User.
-
Enter the user’s information. For this tutorial, enter mquser123 as the username, MQ User 123 for the display name, and Mquserpw123 for the password.
