When using E-goi, it is possible to create users for other people to access your account, limiting their access to certain areas.

To do this, the platform allows you to create additional users, ensuring secure and efficient management of access to your account. This guide will guide you on how to add users, customize their access, and solve common issues related to user management in E-goi.
