Hello,

Is it possible to create a user for only cronjobs?
I use User Role Editor, and have all the options unchecked, except access_civicrm
but if i login with that account, i still can make activities and see some reports. Is there a way to do this simple?

Thanks!

Depending on which cronjob, the user has to have quite a few permissions (eg. some jobs create activities or email reports, so that's "normal").

What you can do is to make a cron user with a super long password only that you only use in the cron config. It doesn't matter if it has "too many" permissions if no one uses it but the cronjobs.
