- A basic account is automatically created when an MIT certificate-bearing user first arrives on the site.
- A basic account is automatically created when a new user is detected in
any of the groups in the Moira feed (which imports any groups which are inside the a container list named confluence-groups), or when the user is detected in an equivalent feed of identified Stellar class lists .
Non-MIT users
- A non-MIT user (that is, a user not berring an MIT personal certificate) arriving on the site is redirected to a username/password login page. If the user does not yet have an account, he/she can follow a 'register' link from that page in order to caues a basic account created. Submission of the registration form causes a basic account to be created. The registrant's username will map to whatever the user enters as their email address.

- Confluence groups map to Moira groups and Stellar class membership lists. In order to add a user to a Confluence group, add that user to the proper Moira group . As a space administrator, you will see links to the web-Moira interface from the Space Administration/Permissions page (look to the bottom of the left-hand navigation menu). These links allow you to administer the group(s) associated with your space. As a member of the <space>-admin group yourself, you should generally be able to administer the user group associated with the space.or Stellar class group.
- A periodic (several times a day) Moira feed synchronizes internal Confluence groups with their corresponding Moira groups. The Stellar feed is more infrequent.
- If, in the feed, an MIT user is detected who does not yet have a basic Confluence account, an account will be created for that user and the user will be added to the appropriate Confluence group(s). Users with existing accounts will also be added to the appropriate group(s).
- If a non-MIT user is detected in the Moira feed, a basic account will not be created automatically. If the account for that user already exists, though, the user will be added to the appropriate group(s).
A non-MIT user will not be added a to Confluence group (except confluence-users – see below), even if the user exists in the Moira feed group, until that user has created an account via the 'register' page. - All user accounts are included in a base-level group named confluence-users. This group is not modifyable via Moira.
Info Non-MIT users should be added to Moira groups as type 'string'.
