Roles & Permissions

EOS Hub uses a two-layer permission system: System Roles control global access, while Team Roles control what a user can do within a specific team.

System Roles

System roles are assigned at the user level and apply across the entire application.

RoleDescription
SUPERADMINFull access to everything: all teams, all data, admin panel
USERStandard user; access determined by team memberships

SUPERADMIN

A SUPERADMIN can:

  • View and manage all teams, regardless of membership
  • Access the admin panel
  • Create and delete users
  • Change system roles
  • Modify any team's data

WARNING

Grant SUPERADMIN access sparingly. In most organizations, only one or two people need this level of access.

USER

A USER can only access teams they have been added to as a member. Their capabilities within each team are determined by their team role.

Team Roles

Team roles are assigned per team. A user can have different roles in different teams.

RoleDescription
OWNERFull control of the team
ADMINCan manage team data and members
MEMBERCan contribute to meetings, update own data
VIEWERRead-only access to team data

OWNER

The team Owner has full control over the team, including the ability to delete it. Every team must have at least one Owner.

ADMIN

Admins can manage team data, add or remove members, and configure team settings. They cannot delete the team.

MEMBER

Members are active participants. They can create and update their own Rocks, To-Dos, and Issues, participate in meetings, and enter Scorecard values.

VIEWER

Viewers have read-only access. They can see the dashboard, Scorecard, Rocks, and other data, but cannot modify anything. This role is useful for stakeholders who need visibility without participation.

How Roles Interact

Consider a user who is:

  • USER system role
  • OWNER of the Sales team
  • MEMBER of the Leadership team

This user can fully manage the Sales team (add members, edit V/TO, delete the team) but can only participate as a regular contributor in the Leadership team.

A SUPERADMIN, regardless of team roles, can access and modify everything.

Managing Roles

Changing System Roles

System roles can only be changed by a SUPERADMIN:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Users.
  2. Find the user.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. Change the System Role dropdown.

Changing Team Roles

Team roles are managed by team Owners and Admins:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Teams.
  2. Select the team.
  3. Find the member in the member list.
  4. Change their role using the dropdown.

TIP

When onboarding a new leadership team member, add them as a MEMBER first. Promote to ADMIN or OWNER after they are comfortable with the platform.
