# Add additional users and sub-accounts

**Add additional users and sub-accounts**

## introduction

You can create additional users for a storage box via the bot. FTP, FTPS, SFTP, SCP, SMB/CIFS, HTTPS, and WebDAV are available as protocols for these users. Additional users/sub-accounts can only access a sub-directory of the main user, and they use the storage space of the main user. The master user will have full access to the directories of all sub-accounts.

You can only delete a sub-account directory if you have already deleted the same sub-account via the bot.

## Explanation of use

6- It will show us the information that needs to be added

**Home directory:** choose the root directory of the storage space

**Comment/Name:** Add a description or something you know

**Other information:** The permissions you want to give to the sub-user

 

**Note: From these options it is possible to set a sub-account as read-only. Then sub-account users cannot upload or delete files. But they can access the subdirectory and download files.**

7- After completing these previous steps, we scroll down to display all the data for the sub-account, whether the user name, password or link to the display.

To access a sub-account, you must use the sub-account username and sub-account domain (eg uXXXXX-subX.your-storagebox.de)
