Managing User Accounts
There are four types of accounts (called roles) that control what a user can do.
Account Roles
Administrator | Can manage users, archive and use all functionality in the media bank. |
Editor | Can upload and edit media files but can not create users and archives. |
Read-only User | Can view, download and share media files, but can not edit. |
Upload-only User | Can not view any media files, can only upload. E.g. for external photographers. |
