Understanding user roles

User roles determine which areas of the platform your team members can view and edit within your account. Once you apply a user role, this setting applies to all existing projects.

  • Admin:

    • Access to user management settings and integrations.

    • Add or remove custom themes.

    • Set up custom user roles with permissions that fit your user needs.

    • They can also create, edit, delete reports and dashboards.

  • Editor:

    • Editors can create, duplicate, and edit or delete reports and dashboards.

    • They can add tags and create segments.

    • They can use the product and its features, except for user management, roles, and permissions.

  • Reader:

    • They can view all feedback, analytics, dashboards, and workflows, but they won’t be able to edit or create reports or dashboards.

    • They can receive email and Slack notifications.

    • Browse through comments, themes and phrases.

    • Use the search functionality.

    • Export reports and dashboards to PDF or PNG.

    • This is a role that was specifically created for your company by an admin in your company. The admin who created this role can also designate the functionality and permissions of this role.

To limit a user’s access to specific data, create data permissions groups instead.
