Workspace users

In a WORKSPACE there are the following user types:
  • Admin: Full workspace administration access. Workspace admins are treated as admins in all projects.
  • Member: Standard workspace access. Members can access shared workspace projects and reports, and may create projects if this is enabled for your workspace.
  • Observer: View-only access to shared workspace projects and reports.
  • Guest: Limited access. Guests can access only the project or projects they have been invited to.
To manage your workspace users see Team.

Project roles

In a PROJECT there are the following roles:
  • Admin (Admin): Full access. Workspace admins are admins in all projects.
  • Editor (Edit): Can edit project content, surveys, charts, reports and responses, but cannot manage project members or delete the project.
  • Reviewer (Review): Can review project data, comment, tag, and highlight text, with edit controls limited to review workflows.
  • Member (View + Comment): Can view and comment.
  • Observer (View): View only.
To manage your project members see Members.

For projects that limit access to invited members, users must be added directly to the project unless they are workspace admins. For projects that are open to workspace members, workspace-level access can also grant project access.
