User roles

What each role is allowed to do, such as building in Studio or seeing costs, and how to add a new role like Supervisor.

What's in this video

  1. A role decides what a person can do and see. To manage roles, open the Governance workspace, and click User roles.
  2. Here are your company's roles. Each one shows what it can do. Governance lets them change company settings like this. Cost lets them see cost figures. A job queue gives them their own list of jobs to pick up. And Studio lets them build and change pages.
  3. The Owner has everything. Our engineers only have a job queue: they can sign in and use the system, but they can't change settings, see costs, or build pages.
  4. Let's add a role for a site supervisor, who should see costs and have a job queue, but not change settings or build pages. Type the name, tick Can view Cost figures and Has a job queue, and click Add role.
  5. The new role appears in the list. Click Edit to change what it can do, and the change applies straight away, for everyone with that role.
  6. If you delete a role, the people who had it aren't removed. They show as Unassigned, and can still use your published systems, until you give them a new role. In the next video, we'll add a team member, and give them a role.
