Manage your users (Part 1)
Learn how to tailor the SafetyCulture experience of your users based on their specific roles by assigning permissions.
Permissions
Begin managing your users effectively by leveraging permission in the platform. Permissions ultimately help you control who has access to specific features and ensure that everyone on your team can perform all their tasks effectively without compromising data security and privacy.
What are permission sets?
Permission sets are bundles of granular permissions that allow administrators to manage which features their team members can use within their SafetyCulture organization. By assigning permission sets to particular users, you can control what changes they can make, such as adding or removing users, updating billing details, or managing membership in groups and sites in SafetyCulture.
By default, each organization comes with the following permission sets, which you can use as a foundation for new permission sets you may want to create:
Administrator: This permission set gives a user full control of their organization, including management of users, groups, sites, and permissions.
Manager: This permission set gives a user functionalities that a manager might need, including creating templates and training content, managing feature settings, and more.
Standard: This is the default permission set for users in full seats, which gives a user the permissions they need to conduct inspections, report issues, create actions, and more.
Basic: This is the default permission set for users in lite seats, which gives a user the permissions they need to take assigned training, and more.
Guest: This is the default permission set for users in guest seats, which gives a user the permissions they need to report issues, create actions, view Heads Ups, and more.
You can fully customize or delete all the pre-built permission sets, apart from "Administrator". For the "Administrator" permission set, you can add the override permissions to view and manage all data in your organization.
