  5. Save the template

Permission Categories

Permissions are grouped by feature:

Best Practices

Permission Template Tips

  • Create templates for common roles (Project Manager, Site Manager, Consultant)
  • Start with minimal permissions and add as needed
  • Review templates regularly to ensure they match current needs
  • Use descriptive template names

Security Recommendations

  • Remove access promptly when team members leave
  • Regularly audit organisation membership
  • Use appropriate permission levels (don't over-grant access)
  • Review user applications promptly
