The role permissions for user management allow you to determine a user’s access for user accounts, user groups, and roles. Roles help admins manage permissions in bulk, and are distinct from user groups. To learn more about the difference between roles and user groups, see Roles vs Groups.
The following permissions are available for user management:
Permission | Description |
---|---|
Enable all | This permission enables all of the user management permissions with a single click. When you select this checkbox, the app automatically selects all the other checkboxes in the User Management section. |
Manage groups | This permission allows users to create, view, and edit all user groups. |
Manage roles | This permission allows users to create, view and edit all roles. |
Manage direct reports |
This permission allows users to edit the user accounts of their direct reports. A user's direct reports are any other users who have them listed in the Assign Managers field of their user account. For example, if User A is listed in the Assign Managers field of User B’s user account, User B would be User A’s direct report, and User A would be able to edit User B’s account (as long as this permission was enabled for their assigned role). |
Manage users | This permission allows users to create, view, and edit all user accounts. |
View groups | This permission allows users view-only access to user groups. Unlike the Manage groups permission, it does not allow any create or edit access. |
View roles | This permission allows users view-only access to roles. Unlike the Manage roles permission, it does not allow any create or edit access. |
View users | This permission allows users view-only access to all user accounts. Unlike the Manage users permission, it does not allow any create or edit access. |
