Understand user roles
Updated over a week ago

In the app, users can have different roles based on their permissions and activities within the platform. The role of the user defines what exactly this user can see and manage in the app and the location. Understand visibility

Your app differentiates location and network members:

  • Location members are users who belong to a specific location. Location members can see all app content with the "Location Members" visibility level or higher.

  • Network members are users who belong to your network, which consists of two or more locations. For example, these users belong to your second location but don't belong to the first one. Network members can see all app content with the "Location Members" visibility level or higher. To allow members of any location to view the app content in a location they don't belong to, set the "Network Members" visibility level.

Users without roles

Users may have no role in the app in two cases:

  • The user navigates to the app and doesn't log in yet. Since there is no email address confirmed, it's impossible to define what role this user must have.

  • The user has just created the account in the app for the first time and hasn't booked anything yet, or hasn't been invited as a member, administrator, or owner yet.

If the administrator deletes the nonmember, the user loses their role too but the administrator can still access their booking and payment history on the Community > Nonmembers > user profile page (shows as "Deleted User").

In such cases, users can view only the public content available. Understand and use visibility settings
