Managing Group Permissions

Users: In order to manage group permissions, you must be an Administrator.

 

You can assign groups of users to templates and folders instead of adding users one by one.

Managing groups in a folder

To add a group to a folder, first click the cog next to its name in your dashboard and select “Assign members”.

Now type the name of the group into the “Name or Email Address” field and click “Add”.

To change the permission level of the entire group, use the dropdown next to their entry to select either “can edit and run”, “can view and run”, “can view own and run” or “can view own”.

To remove a group, click the “X” at the far right of their entry.

Managing groups in a template

To add a group to a template, click the cog next to the template’s name in your home screen or in a folder, and then click “Share template” from the right-hand menu.

In the permissions tab, type the name of your group into the “Name or Email Address” field and click “Add”.

To change the permission level of the entire group, use the dropdown next to their entry to select “can edit &run”, “can view & run”, “can view own & run” or “can view own”.

To remove a group, click the “Remove user” icon at the far right of their entry.

Permission levels

Changing the user permission level (eg: “can edit & run”) of a group will also change the permission of any user in that group in the same way.

For example, if a group is assigned to a template or folder and that group’s permission is changed from “can edit & run” to “can view own”, everyone in the group will now have “can view own” permission in that template or folder.

If you want users to have more control, you will need to change their permission to “can edit”.

Note that folder level permissions may affect the permissions you have on templates.
