Roles

The role given to a user account determines what stuff they can do and see.

Untitled

Hierarchy of Roles

Role Access Level
System Admin Full control over system settings and management.
System Monitor System performance and access monitoring.
Team Leader Expanded access to manage spaces and teams, including the ability to control permissions for spaces they are members of, creating templates, and data recovery from snapshots.
Team Member Access to spaces in the web and desktop apps.
Client Access to only the Libraries interface in the web app.
User SMB access only. No access to user interfaces, except to change your password.

<aside> ⚠️ Only give the System Admin and Team Leader roles to people you trust.

These roles have far-reaching privileges compared to other roles.

Give most of your users the Team Member role. Team Members can access and browse the ‘Spaces’ page, but are restricted from management features.

While even Team Members can delete or corrupt files, a System Admin or Team Leader can recover them using a snapshot. However, if spaces and/or snapshots are deleted entirely, you can never get the content back.

</aside>

What Can Each Role Do?

All roles have access to the full capabilities of the desktop app, with the exception or User and Client can only use the web app.

The following tables break down what actions each role is capable of in the creative.space web app:
