Manage Project Roles & Members
Manage Project Roles & Members This how-to guide explains how to manage project roles and members in Authorium. Project Roles define what users can view and edit within a project, while Project Members are the individuals assigned to each role. Together, they control collaboration and access throughout the project lifecycle.
When to Edit Project Permissions
You should manage project roles and members when:
- You need to define or customize access levels for project contributors.
- You want to create role-based workflows across multiple teams.
- You are standardizing permissions for consistent project setup.
About Project Roles
Project Roles in Authorium are permission-based and define what users can do in a project. For example:
- Project Owners and Project Managers can add team members.
- Editors can manage documents and forms.
- Contributors have limited viewing rights. Some roles come pre-defined and include permissions that cannot be changed. Custom roles can be created to support different types of collaborators (e.g., Legal Reviewer, Financial Analyst). Project Roles are distinct from Organization Roles, which govern platform-level access. Organization Roles are managed separately under Admin settings.
What You Can Do
You can manage project roles and members using the following actions:
- Edit Project Permissions: Customize what each role can view or manage in a project.
- Add or Edit Project Roles: Create custom roles or modify existing ones to fit team needs.
