## Goal

Change a user's Access Type for a specific tenant (application) from the Enterprise Administration tenant.

> **Note:** The following Access Types can NOT be updated/changed after initial user creation:
>
>
> 1. **Enterprise Administrators** — By default, anyone who is an enterprise admin cannot be reduced to anything less than Administrator in any application.
> 2. **API** — API access types cannot be increased/changed.
> 3. **Gateway** — Gateway access types cannot be increased/changed.
>
>
> API & Gateway Access Types work similarly to Web Access — additional Roles (Policy Groups) must be attached in order to grant further access to specific data within Fuuz to these system-based users. These access types should never be used to log in to the front end / UI of Fuuz.

## Steps

1. Log in to **Enterprise Administration** and open **Access Control → Enterprise Users** .
2. Find and select the user.
3. Open **User Tenants** , select the target application, and click **Edit** .
4. Change the **Access Type** (Administrator / Developer / Web / API / Gateway as applicable).
5. **Save** , then have the user sign out and sign back in; refresh the screen to load the new menus.

> **Tip:** If you don't see expected menus, clear cache or refresh; Access Type changes may require a fresh session.
