This technical document explains the procedure of User addition in RedHat OpenShift where TIBCO Business Works Container Edition applications are hosted.

User types can be defined as below:

This type of users can send requests to RedHat OpenShift Platform API

System User:

These are default users created when OpenShift Platform is created
