Understanding Site Roles
Mapistry has a variety of default roles that control what a user can do on each Site.
The Basic Differences Between Roles
- Organization Admin: Can perform all functions and has full visibility to everything in Mapistry. This is the only role that can setup or edit Environmental Data Platform (EDP) Logs and Resources. Contact your onboarding team to make Organization Admin assignments.
- Site Admin: Has the ability to modify to Inspections, Tasks, Logs, Maps, documents, and users for the sites that they are added to.
- Primary Site Admin: Can perform the same duties as Site Admin; each Site has one Primary Site Admin. This role acts as a backstop for personnel turnover: if other Site Admins leave the organization, assigned tasks default back to the Primary Site Admin.
- Site Contributor: Can access the Site, add data, complete Inspections and Tasks. Can fully edit Tasks they create, and can only edit notes and add/remove attachments for Tasks assigned to them. Cannot make any edits to Tasks not assigned to or created by them. Can only delete Tasks they created. They cannot add new users or edit the permissions of existing users.
- Site Viewer: Can view the Site but cannot make changes or edits, complete Inspections, nor add or edit Log entries and Views. Cannot be assigned Tasks.
- Site Maintenance: Will be able to receive e-mails on Tasks that are assigned to them. They will not be able to log in (on desktop nor mobile app) to mark those Tasks as completed.
💡Note: a Task may be assigned to multiple users; if so, any assignee, an admin, or the author could complete the task.
