User Roles

In SearchShare, there are two primary user levels: Admin and User. Each level has distinct permissions and capabilities to ensure seamless account management and security.

1. Admin User Level:

Key Features and Permissions:

Full Access: Admins have complete access to all features and functionalities of the account. User Management: Crucially, Admins have the exclusive ability to: Create new users. Assign or modify user levels. Deactivate or remove users. Report & Data Control: Admins can create, modify, or delete any reports and datasets. Settings & Customisation: Admins can modify account settings, integrations, and customise the platform appearance or layout.

Use Cases:

Admin level is ideal for team leaders, managers, or IT staff who need full control over the system and its users.

2. User User Level:

Key Features and Permissions:

Limited Access: Users can access features and functionalities, but this might be restricted based on what the Admin has set. No User Management: Users cannot create, modify, or remove other users. They can only view other users or collaborators on shared projects. Report & Data Interaction: Users can typically view, create, and modify reports, but certain restrictions might apply based on Admin settings. Limited Settings Access: Users can usually modify their personal settings, but won't have access to account-wide settings or customisations.

Use Cases:

The User level is suitable for team members who need to work on projects, view or generate reports but don't require overarching control over the system.

In Summary:

The primary difference between Admin and User levels is the authority over user management. Admins can create and manage other users, while Users have restricted access and cannot modify user settings. This distinction ensures that only trusted individuals have the power to make significant changes to the account, maintaining system integrity and security.
