🔒Permissions and Roles
Understanding Permissions in the App
This guide explains the standard permission levels.
Please note: some clients may have custom permissions configured by their account manager. If your setup differs, please consult your account manager for details.
Permissions are managed at two main levels:
The Organisation and
Within specific Workspaces & Projects.
1. Organisation Roles
Every user belongs to an organisation and has one of two roles. These roles apply across all our apps (e.g., Assist, Insight, Brandcheck).
- Admin: Has the highest level of access at the organisation level.
- Member: Has standard user access.
An Organisation Admin can perform exclusive actions that Members cannot:
- ➕ Add knowledge and templates that are available to the entire organisation.
- 📊 View usage reports for the whole platform.
- 🔐 Manage the primary workspace (the workspace that shares the same name as your organisation).
2. Workspace & Project Roles
Workspaces and projects have their own set of permissions.
The user who creates a workspace or project becomes its owner.
To give others access, the owner must share it and assign one of the following roles:
- Admin: Can do everything the original creator can, including renaming the item, adding knowledge, and sharing it with others.
- Creator: Can add new content within the item (e.g., create new projects in a workspace or new outputs in a project) but cannot edit the item's settings or knowledge.
- Viewer: Can only view the contents of the workspace or project. They cannot create or edit anything.
3. Privacy by Default 🔒
Your work is always kept private until you decide to share it.
- Default Privacy: When you create a new workspace or project, it is private by default. Only you can see it.
- Admin Access: Organisation Admins cannot see your private workspaces or projects unless you explicitly share them or make them public.
- Default Sharing: You can change your settings to set a default access level (e.g., Viewer) for everyone in your organisation whenever you create a new item. This can also be configured by your account manager.
