Admin role management


These terms define how the platform rules work in relation to admin roles and permissions:

Full-access Admin: an admin with the ability to create, edit, and delete all information related to the group. There is at least one person within a group with this role, and it is initially assigned to the person who created the group.  This is the only role wherein the permissions are not editable.

Admin: a person who has been assigned an administrative role within the group with view and/or edit permissions.

Role: a set of permissions defined by the full-access admin or another admin with role management permissions, and assigned to admins of the group.

Feature: a distinct service relating to a set of actions that can be taken on the platform.
​

Permissions: rules within each feature that determine whether an admin can only view items within that feature or whether they can also edit the items.

How Do I Create and Assign a New Admin Role?

Each group has at least one full-access admin. This role is initially assigned to the person who created the group.  A full-access admin can assign this role to other admins as well as edit others’ permissions and roles. To help manage your organization, you can assign an unlimited number of admins and create an unlimited number of roles.​

Important note: users with the full-access admin role (or the role management feature as part of their role) are able to remove roles from other admins, which could inadvertently prevent them from being able to manage the group. Do not assign the full-access admin role or the role management feature to anyone unless you want him or her to have the ability to revoke other admin’s roles.
​
