Manage squad roles and permissions

Assigning roles and managing permissions can be complicated, but SquadPod makes it simple.  There are four roles that a Squad Admin can assign to squad members: Admin, User, Viewer, and Guest.  Invites default to the User role, but a Squad Admin can change it to a different role so it is applied when a person accepts the invite.  Otherwise, Squad Admins can change roles for existing squad members. 

*The Guest role is available for squads on the Pro plan.  

 

Squad Roles

Admin

Squad Admins can invite people, remove people, change roles, change the squad avatar, and set Pods as Default or Required.  Read more about Pod Settings here.  In addition to administrative permissions, admins can also create pods, chats, video calls, and tasks.   

User

Squad Users can create pods, chats, video calls, and tasks.  

Viewer

Squad Viewers cannot create pods, chats, video calls, or tasks, but they can be added to those items and participate with the role set within the pod or chat.  

Guest 

Guests inherit the Squad Users permission set, but can only see and interact with squads members they are connected with.  Connections are created for Guests when they are added to a pod or chat.  If the Guest is removed from a pod or chat they no longer have visibility to those squad members and cannot communicate with them.
