Differences between Admin and Designer

  • An Admin is a content automation user with unrestricted access to all areas of the platform. They're the only ones who can add users, edit teams, and access the account settings tab.

    The Admin view on the left navigation menu shows projects, approvals, assets, users and teams, templating, and account settings. 

  • designer is a user who can create templates for users within their organization. Designers have editing access to all projects and their documents, as well as Admin access to the assets and templating tabs.

    The Designer view shows projects, approvals, assets, and teams.
