Understand roles and permissions

Access depends on the product, selected workspace, licensed modules, your membership and the permissions on a specific record. A guide being available does not mean that its feature is included in every plan or workspace.

Which level controls access?

LevelMeaningExample
ProductDetermines the available feature areasLeads and real estate belong to insideCRM.
Workspace and licenseDetermine membership and enabled modulesTickets must be enabled for the workspace.
Membership roleDistinguishes regular members from administratorsAdministrators receive additional management permissions.
Individual permissionAllows reading, writing or a specific management actiontickets.read allows reading, tickets.write editing.
Record accessRestricts access within a moduleA private folder or an unshared mailbox remains protected.

Members generally receive the business permissions of enabled modules; individual permission overrides can change these. Administrator status does not provide missing product features or licenses. The user form provides an administrator checkbox, rather than a configurable role matrix.

Common permissions

PermissionUse
contacts.read / contacts.writeRead / edit contacts
mail.read / mail.writeRead mail / send mail and edit accounts
tasks.read / tasks.writeRead / edit tasks
tickets.read / tickets.writeRead / edit tickets
tickets.settings.manageManage ticket statuses, types and other ticket settings
files.read / files.write / files.shareRead / edit / share files
vault.read / vault.write / vault.shareRead / change / share password-safe entries
management.readOpen management overview and API-key list
users.manageManage users
settings.manageChange central settings and API keys

Individual guides explain additional requirements. Mailbox managers, project members and safe administrators have different responsibilities; one role does not replace the others.

insideBase workspaces

Distinguish your personal workspace from a team workspace. A personal workspace has no team management or file/safe sharing permissions. Switch to the appropriate team for shared work. Use the other product's application to change products.

Change administrator status

  1. Open Management → Users in the relevant workspace.
  2. Find the person and open Edit. Verify their business identity.
  3. Change the administrator checkbox only when the person should gain or give up management responsibilities. Complete reauthentication if requested.
  4. Save and verify the required workflow using the affected account.
  5. Transfer shared data, mailboxes and safes before withdrawing access. Do not work around an error protecting the last administrator.
