Project roles

For every project you create, you need to specify which Data Productivity Cloud users can access it. Each user can be assigned one role within the project:

• Owner
• Contributor
• Viewer

A user's role determines what they can do within that project, as shown in the Role permissions tables below.

Note

Users with the Super Admin role on an account are always granted the Owner role for all projects in that account.

Add a user to a project

If you have the Owner role on a project or the Super Admin role on the account, you can add users to that project.

To add a user to a project, and assign them a role:

1. From Your projects, select your project.
2. Navigate to the Access tab.
3. Click Add user.
4. Select a user from the User drop-down.
   • The drop-down list displays every user defined in your Data Productivity Cloud account. If you want to invite new users to your account, read Manage other users.
   • To filter the list, begin typing a user's name in the field.

5. Select a Project role for the user. Available roles are:

   • Owner
   • Contributor
   • Viewer

   For information on the available roles, read Role permissions.

6. Click Add to add the user.

Edit a user's project role

Only users assigned the Owner role on a project can edit other users.

Remove a user from a project

Only users assigned the Owner role on a project can remove other users. When you remove a user, you delete their assigned role and completely revoke their access to the project.

2. Navigate to the Access tab.
