Within Innoslate, Organization Admins can create and personalize Project Roles for their organization, enabling smooth teamwork and permission access for all members.

Project Roles

The 'Roles' Panel on the Admin Dashboard enables customization of Project Roles in Innoslate. These roles are specifically designed for users holding the Organization Role of 'Member'. This distinction is important as Admins or SuperAdmins automatically have 'Owner' rights to all projects within the organization.

When collaborating on projects, users can assign specific roles to team members. These Project Roles can be easily managed through the Roles Panel. Organization administrators have complete control over creating and customizing roles within their organization.

Innoslate's Project Roles can have any combination of the following 8 project permissions:

  • Read-  the ability to view the whole project
  • Write- the ability to create, delete and modify entities
  • Modified Schema-  the ability to modify the schema editor for the project
  • Create Baseline- create/delete Baseline for a Document
  • Review- the ability to Comment
  • Create Test Cycles- create/delete Test Cycle
  • Force Unlock- the ability to unlock any locked entity anytime
  • Share- the ability to share the project with other users within your Innoslate organization

Out of the box, Innoslate provides the following Project Roles automatically: 

  • Owner- the sole role with complete access to all 8 permissions
  • Collaborator- can Read, Write and Review
  • Reviewer- Read & Review
  • Viewer- Read only
