Team Admin permissions

Choose which permissions Team Admins have and configure access for individual Team Admin users.

KB-0421 Last verified

Overview

We’ve introduced User-Level Permission Customization to give Admins more control over what each Team Admin can do inside the Engage platform. This ensures that roles are better aligned with responsibilities, improving security and usability.

All Team Admins (new and existing) now have an individual permissions panel.

⚠️ Important:

  • Current Team Admins will have all permissions enabled by default.

  • New Team Admins will follow the updated default configuration (detailed below).

Admins can update these settings per user via their profile.
