Docker Universal Control Plane provides built-in authentication and also
integrates with LDAP directory services. If you want to manage
users and groups from your organization's directory, choose LDAP.
[Learn to integrate with an LDAP directory](../admin/configure/external-auth/index.md).
When using the UCP built-in authentication, you need to create users and
optionally grant them UCP administrator permissions.
Each new user gets a default permission level so that they can access the
swarm.
To create a new user, go to the UCP web UI, and navigate to the
**Users** page.

Click the **Create user** button, and fill-in the user information.

Check the `Is a UCP admin?` option, if you want to grant permissions for the
user to change the swarm configuration and manage grants, roles, and
collections.
Finally, click the **Create** button to create the user.
