To add or remove users, update the users list in the `myinfluxdb.yml` file.
14-
The users list is found at `spec.package.spec.admin.users`.
15-
After updating the list, re-apply `myinfluxdb.yml`.

To learn how to apply `myinfluxdb.yml`, see [Deploy an InfluxDB cluster](/influxdb/clustered/install/deploy).

After `myinfluxdb.yml` has been applied, updates take a couple of minutes to complete.

When the updates are finished, new users will have been added, and removed users will have been deleted.

Manage users with administrative access to your InfluxDB cluster through your
18+
[identity provider](/influxdb/clustered/install/auth/) and your InfluxDB
19+
`AppInstance` resource. Administrative access lets users perform actions like
20+
creating databases and tokens.

#### Users versus database tokens
24+
25+
All _users_ have administrative access to your cluster and can perform
26+
administrative actions in your InfluxDB cluster.
27+
_Database tokens_ authorize read and write access to databases in your InfluxDB
28+
cluster. A person or client doesn't need to be a user to read and write data in your cluster,
29+
but they must have a database token.
