New version published.

> ## Version 2.1.0
> 
> - Added User Management

It’s been a bit quiet around _ **Heimdall** _ for a while, but I have great news! In this new version I’ve introduced **User Management**. Wow, great news, what can I do with it You’ll ask, and the answer is… Well, nothing useful yet!  
This new functionality makes it possible to use physical keypads with _ **Heimdall** _ but there are no apps yet for keypads that use this functionality.  
Yet that is. I’m currently working on finalising an app that will let you add a full blown Alarm Keypad to your Homey and this will integrate with _ **Heimdall** _. You’ll need no flows, just create users, configure some settings to your likings and you’re done!

> **Q:** How do I setup my users?  
> **A:** Open the _ **Heimdall** _ settings and click on **Users**. When it’s the first time you open this tab you can create your first users, when you’ve been there before you will need to provide a PIN.

Your first user will always be **Administrator** and can never be **Disabled** or **Deleted**. All other users _can_ be **Administrator,** and can be **Disabled** or **Deleted**.  
Each user that is not an **Administrator** can go into the **Users** tab and change it’s own PIN but will not be able to change other settings or see other **Users**.

After saving you will see the **Users List** and you can create more users by clicking on **+ Add user**.  
When you want to edit an existing user, simply click on **\>** next to the users name.

Are you a developer and would like to know how to make an app capable of utilising this functionality or just interested in how this works, have a look at the _ **Heimdall** _ [Wiki page](https://github.com/daneedk/com.uc.heimdall/wiki/How-to-get-access-to-API-Endpoints-from-another-app.) on Github.
