KiteSuite ensures your data is secure by allowing you to assign specific roles and permissions. This way, you can decide who gets to see and use particular data, maintaining its confidentiality and integrity. These roles and permissions operate differently for projects and workspaces. Let's explore workspace permissions.

Within the workspace, there are four default roles: Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer. Each role comes with different permissions, and you can adjust these permissions for all roles except the Owner.

Owner

The workspace creator with unrestricted access. Owner permissions cannot be changed or transferred.

Admin

Just below the Owner in terms of permissions. You can adjust the Admin's permissions as needed.

Member

Users invited during project creation default to this role. You can modify their permissions.

Viewer

Users with this role can only view items. You can customize their permissions as well.

Custom role

In addition to the default roles, you can create custom workspace roles to tailor permissions according to your specific needs. Initially, custom roles have the same permissions as Viewers, but you can customize them. Here's how:

Step 1: Click "Manage Custom Role."

Step 2: Select "Create Custom Role."

Step 4: You've successfully created your custom role.

You can also edit or delete custom roles. If you delete a custom role assigned to a member, that member's role will automatically revert to the default "Member" role.
