Ensembling Help – Who can do what?

Who can do what?

privileges permissions

This page lists what rôle someone has to have to do something.

Logged in users each have a rôle which says what they are allowed to do. Rôles differ from project to project. See About colleagues and rôles for more details.

These rôles are (in increasing order of ability, so that everyone further down the list can do everything those above them can):

viewer
proof reader
contributor
editor
project leader
manager
