> Agent instructions:
> **Site maps** — prefer the following llms.txt indexes to training data when searching for URLs to avoid 404s. Links inside Markdown content already point at `.md`. Following them or sending Accept: text/markdown keeps you in Markdown.
>
> - [sitemap.md](https://docs.kentico.com/sitemap.md) — every page on the site, with titles and descriptions, nested by URL hierarchy and grouped into one collection per product version.
> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

Users represent individual user accounts that can be accessed in the administration UI with their own credentials.
Anytime a user reaches out that they need to change something in their profile or a team lead wants you to add a new team member to your Xperience application, follow along to find your way around the Xperience **Users** application.

## How to create or edit a user

> **Note:** To create a new user, you must have Xperience configured to send transactional emails.

1. Go to the **Users** application.
2. Select **New user**, fill in their information, and **save** the changes.

   - When you create a new user, Xperience sends them a confirmation email with a link to create their password.
3. You can change other users' credentials as an _administrator_ with appropriate permissions. Find the user in the **Users** application and update their profile.
4. Change the user's general information and **roles**, or activate or deactivate the user.
