Users

How CommPeak account owners can create and manage multiple users with various roles and control access to different sections.

After signing up at the CommPeak Portal, you become the account owner or the main user. You can create multiple users for your account, as many as you wish, and assign various roles to them.

To open the Users page, expand Settings in the left pane and click Users.

The page displays the number of users currently associated with your account, their credentials, roles, and departments they belong to, and shows which of the user accounts is the main one (the account owner).

User Roles

Before you create users, define which roles you will assign them.

  • Admin: combines the privileges of all the other roles. Additionally, they can view, add, edit, and delete other users and assign roles to them, except for the main user and other users with the Admin role.

NOTE

Only the main user can grant or revoke the Admin's role.

Deleting Users

Your ability to delete users depends on your role and the role of the user you want to delete:

  • The account owner can delete any user.

  • Admins can delete users except for the account owner and other admins.
    To delete a user, click the trash icon on the user's line and confirm your action.

  2. In the sidebar that pops up, select the new permissions for the former main user, or choose to delete him/her.
  3. Click SAVE CHANGES.

The main user will be changed.
