User management

Understanding user management and usage stats

Overleaf Commons subscriptions do not require any direct user management. Users provision and enroll their own Overleaf accounts in the subscription without any intervention from the subscription managers.

Overleaf Commons is a fully managed service. Users provision their own user accounts, and any changes to the subscription are facilitated by Overleaf support.

An Overleaf Commons customer will designate some users at the institution to be subscription managers, who can access data about the subscription. An initial set of subscription managers will be designated when the subscription is set up. Existing managers can add or remove other managers from the managers list on their Subscription page under "Managed institution managers."

Subscription managers will have access to an Admin Hub, where you can get a snapshot of recent subscription use and download a complete user list. There are also further insights available on the metrics page.
