Edit and Manage Administrator Permissions

If you are an Inspire admin, you can grant users different sets of permissions to allow them access to additional functionalities. This article will discuss types of admin permissions and how to set permissions for users.

Rules for Managing Permissions

  • You must be an Administrator to grant users permissions. You can only update other users' permissions.
  • An admin cannot add or remove their own permissions.
  • Add all/remove all buttons for adding permissions are hidden except for the objective teams admin.

To find the admin permissions page:

  1. Navigate to Administration -> Org Management
  2. Click on Permissions, and on that page you will find:
    1. Permission roles to view with the following per permission:
      1. Permission title
      2. Number of users with permission assigned
      3. Edit permissions
    2. You are also provided a link to the Permissions Report, and when clicked, the report opens in modal.

Once you click edit for a permission role:

  • Click the edit icon next to a permission role to view users assigned the permission and available users (participant assignment)
  • For assigned/available users, you can view the following for each user:
    • Name
    • Department
    • Business Unit
    • Region
    • User profile card
    • Columns are sortable
  • You can search for a user (search applies to assigned/available user lists)
  • You can select user(s) and assign the desired role
    • The default you will see for available users is a list of all individuals 
    • You can optionally select a group, and group members whom are not assigned the permission will display as available 
  • You can also select user(s) and remove the existing permission.
