Create advanced template and inspection access rules

Learn how to create advanced access rules for templates and inspections via the web app.

What are advanced access rules?

Advanced access rules allow you to automatically give template and inspection access to site members based on their site membership. Through advanced access rules, you can also give template and inspection access to users based on a combination of their membership in groups and sites.

For example, if a user is a member of the site "SafetyCulture" and the group "Administrators", inspections conducted from a template will be available to other site members who are also members of the group.

An example of an advanced inspection access rule on the web app.

Advanced access rules are only available to organizations without users who are direct members of more than 40 sites or levels.

If you don't see advanced access rules available in your organization, please contact our customer support team or your customer success manager for assistance.
