Project Roles

What are Project Roles?

People in a project have different access to the project based on what Project Role they are granted.

There are 3 different Project Roles:

  1. Owner - Owners have full access to the Project.
  2. Member - Members have access to existing and future public Groups in the Project. They must be manually added to private Groups.
  3. Collaborator  - Collaborators have no access by default. They must be manually added to public or private Groups in the Project.
