Create new PFUser using code without logging in as this new PFUser - ios

Question

I am creating a new PFUser to be a "sub user" of the currently logged in user.
For example Master is logged in and decides to create a Junior User.
The Junior user will have a different PFRole to the Master.
I can create a new User via
var newUser = PFUser()
newUser.email = "someemail#gmail.com"
newUser.username = "Demo Subuser"
newUser.password = "12341234"
newUser.signUpInBackgroundWithBlock { (newUser, error) -> Void in
println(error)
}
The user is created, but the problem is I am logged out of the master account and logged in as the Junior user.
How can I create a new PFUser without it logging into that account.
Ideally, I want to send an email to the new subuser stating, welcome here is your username and details.
Maybe I should be using CloudCode ?
Thanks

Create a Cloudcode function and upload it to Parse
Parse.Cloud.define("createNewUser", function(request, response) {
// extract passed in details
var username = request.params.username
var pw = request.params.password
var email = request.params.email
// cloud local calls
var user = new Parse.User();
user.set("username", username);
user.set("password", pw);
user.set("email", email);
user.signUp(null, {
success: function(user) {
//response.error("working");
// do other stuff here
// like set ACL
// create relationships
// and then save again!! using user.save
// you will need to use Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey();
},
error: function(user, error) {
//response.error("Sorry! " + error.message);
} });
});
Call the cloud code function from within your app via. Pass in details to the clod function using a Dictionary, ["username":"", "password":""] etc
