If the following message is displayed when you attempt to login to Arlo for Mobile or access courses and registrations where you are not course presenter, your Arlo administrator is required to update your user security settings and enable the API role.
Presenters can only access the courses/sessions they are set to present on. Arlo administrators can access all courses.
Set the correct access for contacts
- Set up the presenter or administrator access for the user.
- If presenters need access to courses they are not presenting they will need to be assigned an administrator role.
