Project Permissions

Control user access to your Projects

Only Organization Owners and Admins can create projects. GLIDR is a permission-based platform and there are two levels of permissions: organization-level, and project-level.

By default, project access is available to all members of the organization. This can be changed at the organization-level and the project-level.
​

To set organization-level permission, navigate to Organization Settings > Customization > Project Default Settings. Once enabled, all projects will require member invitation. This action can be undone at any time by returning to the page and disabling the feature by selecting the red toggle.

To set project-level permissions for your team members, first navigate to the project, select the Settings Icon next to the Project name. Next, click Team Members. Here, you'll be able to see all of the current team members listed with their permission levels.

Users can be added to a project as a Project Admin, Collaborator, Limited Contributor, or Viewer.

Project Admins can:

  • Update project settings, such as the project name and visibility.

  • Upgrade and downgrade teammates' permissions.

  • Add team members from those who have already joined the organization.

  • Remove team members from the project.

  • Integrate the project with Slack.

  • Update the Canvas section labels.

  • View all sections of the project.

  • Create, edit, delete, and connect cards in the project.

  • Update the project Dashboard.

  • Comment on all cards in the project.

Collaborators can:

  • View all sections of the project.

  • Create, edit, delete, and connect cards in the project.

  • Update the project Dashboard.

  • Comment on all cards in the project.

Limited Contributors can:

  • Create, tag and connect new Evidence

  • Submit evidence via the Chrome Extension

  • Edit Evidence they added

  • View but not edit evidence they did not add

  • Comment and @mention colleagues on all cards in the Project

  • View (but not edit) Ideas, Evidence and Discovery tasks

Viewers can:

  • View all cards and sections of the project.

  • Comment on all cards in the project - only when commenting has been enabled by the Project Admin.
