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
- Client User 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.
