How do I manage User Roles?

To get started with Roles, go to the left sidebar menu and click Settings then click Roles.

You’ll see a selection of system default roles organized by:

  • Client Roles
  • Partner Roles
  • Advertiser Roles

Click on any of the Roles in these categories. In the right pane that appears, you can view the Rights associated with each category. 

Also notice the ‘+Add Role’ button at the bottom of each category section. This is where things get more exciting with customized Roles.

How can I give Access to only what’s needed? 

Here’s how to create custom Roles with unique sets of user Rights. We’ll start with an outline of the process, followed by a use case example. 

 

First see a high-level overview below:  

  • Click the ‘+Add Role’ button;
  • The right pane shows options for user Rights under ‘Create New Role’;
  • Notice that Rights are organized in a way that emphasizes the Roles each user may play:
    • Client User Rights
      • Admin Rights
      • General Rights
      • Campaign Rights
    • Advertiser Rights
    • Partner Rights
    • Report Rights 
  • Decide which Rights your custom Role should include. 
  • Autosave checkboxes - each time you tick or select a checkbox, that setting is automatically saved.

 

Next, here’s an example of creating a custom Role: 

  • Let’s say you want certain team members to manage general admin duties as well as manage Partner Signups & maintain Partner profiles.
  • You’ll tick relevant checkboxes under Admin Rights as well as Partner Rights. 
    • Under Admin Rights, you’ll tick ‘Select All’;
    • Under General Rights, you’ll tick ‘Select All’;
    • Under Partner Rights, you’ll tick ‘Manage Signups’ & the 3 items related to managing Partner Profiles.
    • Notice that the action of placing a tick (checkmark) autosaves that setting. 
  • Click the ‘Create Role’ button at top right.
