Overview of Roles, Permissions, and Plan Limits
This feature is initially available to Site Administrators. However, as users are assigned to specific role groups, their access to various areas of the site will adjust based on the permissions associated with their assigned roles.
Groups are sets of user accounts that are grouped with common permissions to files (Access Groups) or share common privileges in the application (Role Groups).
Role Groups
Role groups are predefined in the web application:
You may place users as members in these groups with the following permissions:
- Site Administrators – Members have full access to all site content and functions.
- User Administrators – Members have full access to all user management functions.
- File Administrators – Members have full access to all file content and file functions
- New User Authorizer – Members have responsibility to authorize all new users. Requires Site Administrator or User Administrator group membership.
- API Users – Members have access to the API.
The Role Groups are administrator roles and cannot be modified by any user:
The “List” tab shows a list of all the Role Groups:
Access Groups
The “List” tab for Access Groups displays a list of groups created by an administrator:
Understanding Limits on the Number of Groups Per Plan
Each Sharetru site includes predefined role groups to streamline permissions management: Site Administrators, User Administrators, and File Administrators. Additional specialized groups, such as Dual Authorization User and API User groups, are available if your plan includes access to these features.
Access Group Limits by Plan
Access groups are supported across the following Sharetru plans, but the number of groups you can create depends on your plan:
- Growth Plan: Allows up to 5 access groups.
- Performance Plan: Allows an unlimited number of access groups.
- Enterprise Plan: Allows an unlimited number of access groups.
The number of groups available to you is determined by your plan type. If you have questions or would like to upgrade to a plan with unlimited access groups, please contact billing@sharetru.com or reach out to support@sharetru.com for assistance.
