Users authenticate with their LMS user. By default, they have access to the data generated by the courses in which they have the "staff role". Once a user has successfully logged-in, their account can be modified with the ``cairn-createuser`` command.
For instance, to convert an existing user to administrator status, run::
tutor local do cairn-createuser --admin YOURUSERNAME YOURUSERNAME@YOUREMAIL.COM
To add the default dashboards to the new user, add the ``--bootstrap-dashboards`` option::
tutor local do cairn-createuser --bootstrap-dashboards YOURUSERNAME YOURUSERNAME@YOUREMAIL.COM
Some event data might be missing from your dashboards: just start using your LMS and refresh your dashboard. The new events should appear immediately.
