User Permissions: Open Settings and choose User Permissions, under General. It lists everyone in your workspace, and it’s where you choose what each member can do.

Search by name or email: Type part of someone’s name or email address to filter the list as you type. Clear the box to see everyone again.
User count: Shows how many people are in the list, counting only those that match your search.

Each row is one person in your workspace.

Full name: Their name, with how many permissions they have underneath, for example 9 of 21 permissions. An admin always shows every permission.
Email: The email address they sign in with.
Role: Admin or Member. Admins have every permission, along with the Settings areas marked Admins only in these docs. Members can do only what their permissions allow.
Permissions: Opens that person’s permissions, where you can change what they can do.

Choosing Permissions opens a window for that person.

Who you’re editing: The top shows their name and email, and how many permissions they have out of the total, for example 9 / 21.
Permission groups: Permissions are grouped by area of the app, such as Billing, Captures and Inventory. Beside each group’s name is how many of its permissions the person has.
Select all and Clear all: Select all turns on every permission in the group. Once they’re all on, it changes to Clear all, which turns them all off.
Turn a permission on or off: Each tile is one permission. Choose it to turn it on or off. A tick and a highlighted tile mean it’s on. Hover over a permission to see what it allows.
Unsaved changes: Shows No changes, or Unsaved changes once you’ve changed something. Nothing is saved until you choose Save.
Reset: Appears once you’ve changed something. Puts back the permissions the person had when you opened the window.
Cancel: Closes the window without saving.
Save: Saves your changes and closes the window. Saving replaces that person’s permissions with exactly what’s switched on. A message confirms the update.

An admin’s permissions: Opening an admin’s permissions shows that they have full access to every permission. Every tile is ticked and nothing can be changed, because admins already have them all. Choose Close to go back.

Viewing and changing permissions: Admins can view and change everyone’s permissions. A member needs permission to view users’ permissions to see the list, and permission to change them to edit it. With view permission only, the window opens read-only, with Close instead of Cancel and no Save.
Adding and removing people: People aren’t added, removed or made admins on this page. To do any of those, email hello@superlister.com.
