This guide helps new admins get into the portal quickly and confidently.

​
Quick start

Sign in

Go to https://admin.cedarai.com and sign in with your Cedar account.
Use the same credentials you use for other Cedar applications.

Choose your carrier

Your work happens within a carrier (the rail operator or business you manage).
  1. Look at the top of the left sidebar
  2. Confirm you see your carrier name (e.g., TRLDBLKDRY)
  3. If you don’t see the right carrier, contact your Cedar admin or Support
Carrier selection is shown at the top of the left sidebar

Navigate the portal

Use the left sidebar to access different sections:
SectionWhat it’s for
UsersAdd or manage people
User GroupsOrganize people by team
RolesDefine what each group can do
BindingsConnect a group to a role and scope
Activity LogReview recent changes

​
Best practices

Double-check before you save any changes. There’s no “draft” mode—your changes take effect right away.
If you’re unsure where to begin, start with User Groups and Roles before creating Bindings. This makes it easier to manage access at scale.
Always assign access through groups instead of directly to individual users. This makes it much easier to manage access when team members change.
