What I think you are trying to do
I assume that you want to create a new user which can be used to login to the GUI of proxmox and ssh into the server as well
More documentation
You can achieve this by typing the following commands which I got from the proxmox user management page. If you want to learn more, like adding users to groups you can read about it there.
The commands
Note: This will create a user who can only login to the GUI and isn't able to utilize ssh to connect. If you want to change this change 'pve' in the code to 'pam' (enables ssh and GUI)
1. Add a new user using the command
2. Set the users password
Now you can ssh into the server using the user. When you try login into the server using the GUI make sure that you change the 'Realm' field to the correct type (pam or pve) otherwise it will not work.
Hopefully this helps!

1. Add a new user using the command
Code:
pveum user add testuser@pve -comment "A test user who can only use the GUI and not connect via ssh"
Code:
pveum passwd testuser@pveNow you can ssh into the server using the user. When you try login into the server using the GUI make sure that you change the 'Realm' field to the correct type (pam or pve) otherwise it will not work.
