What is the difference between a user with full admin access and customized access?

  • Users with Admin permission: These are global administrators. They will be given full access to the company level and will have access to all events. This admin will be able to create and delete events, templates, add other company admins, set up the features for all events, and much more. The company admin can decide who can access each event.
Only users with Admin permissions have direct access to any event at the company level, regardless of whether they created the event or have been added as attendees. They can access these events without needing to enroll first.
There are two levels of permissions for administrators: company and event admins. If you don't want the admin to have access to all events, just to specific events, you should add them as event admins. To learn more about event admins, refer to our Event admin article.
  • Administrators with customized access: They will be given customized access to the events based on the set key permissions or operation permission bundles allowed for their permission profile. This is useful when you have external agencies or partners who need to view or control a part of your platform, without having full access to it.
To have an administrator with customized access, first, you will need to create a permission profile, and then associate it with the user who should be granted specific permissions.

Will the users be notified that they have gained access to the platform?

The users will receive an invite email with a link to access the platform. All they will need to do is press the blue button Accept invite, as shown below:
