You can create an admin user in Jenkins by following these steps:
1. Access Jenkins Management
- Open your Jenkins web interface.
- Click on "Manage Jenkins" in the left sidebar.
- Select "Manage Users" from the list.
2. Create New User
- Click on "Create User" on the right side of the page.
- Enter the username and password for the new admin user.
- Select "Administrator" from the "Role" dropdown menu.
- Click on "Create User".
3. Verify Admin User Creation
- You should see a confirmation message indicating that the user has been created successfully.
- You can now log in to Jenkins using the newly created admin user.
4. Additional Considerations
- If you're using an external user directory like LDAP, you may need to configure Jenkins to use it for user management.
- You can also create different user roles with varying levels of access to Jenkins.
