Roles in Detail

Owner

Full control over the project. Owners can manage project settings, add or remove members, and create or edit any content.

Member

Can view all project content and create new content (meetings, reports, observations, files). Cannot manage project settings or membership.

Viewer

Read-only access. Viewers can view and download content but cannot create, edit, or delete anything. Useful for external stakeholders or clients who need visibility without edit access.

Note on meeting visibility: What meetings a Viewer can see also depends on the project's asset visibility setting. In Full mode, Viewers see all project meetings. In Owner or Restricted mode, Viewers only see meetings they own or participated in. See Asset Visibility for details.

Assigning Roles

Roles can be assigned when inviting a user to a project, or changed later in Project Settings > Members.
