Note In some situations, updates to the user’s assignments aren’t displayed immediately. To make sure you have the most up-to-date data, refresh the summary page in your browser.

The user can be assigned other access features not listed in this summary.

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Users, and then select **Users**.
2. Select a user.
3. Click **View Summary**. To make sure you have the most up-to-date data, refresh the summary page in your browser.
    
    ![The user access summary page, with both the User Details and User Access Summary sections displayed.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-platform-access-264-0-0-production-enus/a92be132-3cbc-412a-9262-130636120c14/access/images/user_access_summary_updated.png)
    
    The standard and custom user fields that are displayed match the User Details section of the user’s assigned user profile page layout.
4. Review the user’s assigned permissions and tabs. To see which profile, permission sets, or permission set groups are granting the user a specific permission, click the permission's row-level action, and then click **Access Granted By**.
    
    You can also view and update the permission sets, permission set groups, public groups, and queues that the user is added to.

    Note In the Field Permissions tab, only fields whose access can be configured are displayed. Fields that don’t support field-level security aren’t displayed.
