When sending invites for others to join a Futrli workspace, you have control over their permissions. This guide takes a look through which roles have which permissions.

The different Futrli roles

Super administrator

  • If you are the person who created the Futrli workspace, you will automatically be a super administrator.

  • A super administrator will automatically have access to every organisation on a workspace, regardless of who adds it.

  • A super administrator can add organisations and invite new users to the Futrli workspace.

  • When super administrators invite others to the Futrli workspace, they can invite them to have any role, including super administrator as well.

  • A super administrator will see all users on the workspace, regardless of which organisation those users have access to.


Administrator

  • An administrator will only have access to the organisation(s) that they are given permission to in their initial invite.

  • To get access to other organisations they do not have access to, a super administrator will need to update the permissions of the administrator.

  • An administrator can add organisations and invite new users to the Futrli workspace.

  • When administrators invite others to the Futrli workspace, they can invite them with the roles administrator, people manager, data manager or guest.

  • An administrator will see all users on the workspace, regardless of which organisation those users have access to.


People manager

  • A people manager will only have access to the organisation(s) that they are given permission to in their initial invite.

  • To get access to other organisations they do not have access to, a super administrator or administrator will need to update the permissions of the people manager.

  • A people manager cannot add new organisations, but they can invite new users to the Futrli workspace.

  • A people manager can amend the permissions for any user, other than a super administrator.

  • When people managers invite others to the Futrli workspace, they can invite them with the roles people manager, data manager or guest.

  • A people manager will see all users on the workspace, regardless of which organisation those users have access to.


Data manager

  • A data manager will only have access to the organisation(s) that they are given permission to in their initial invite.

  • To get access to other organisations they do not have access to, a super administrator, administrator or people manager will need to update the permissions of the data manager.

  • A data manager can add new organisations to the Futrli workspace, but they cannot invite any new users to the Futrli workspace, or amend any permissions for an existing user.

  • A data manager will see all users on the workspace, regardless of which organisation those users have access to.


Guest

  • A guest will only have access to the organisation(s) that they are given permission to in their initial invite.

  • To get access to other organisations they do not have access to, a super administrator, administrator or people manager will need to update the permissions of the guest.

  • A guest cannot add new organisations to the Futrli workspace. They also cannot invite any new users to the Futrli workspace, or amend any permissions for an existing user.


Who can invite someone to join Futrli?

The following user roles include the ability to invite new users:

  • Super administrator - can invite all roles

  • Administrator - can invite all roles other than super administrator

  • People manager - can invite all roles other than super administrator or administrator.


Can a user be invited with 'read-only' access?

The answer for this is not yet. In future product updates, we will be looking at introducing additional access levels, including a read-only access.
