Roles & Permissions in Quire

New features report #3

We believe full-trust collaboration is the most productive. However, for a fine grained control of permissions in your team, you can choose different roles for your members.

The four roles are Admin, Normal, Limited, and Guest, each with their own level of permissions.

Overview

By default, Normal is the role given to the new member you have invited. Being a Normal member basically allows you to manage everything in a project or organization, except its members.

An Admin, on the other hand, has all the permissions, including managing a project or organization, and its members.

When you outsource a task to an external team, you can assign different roles to the team’s external members. The external members will only have permissions to the task outsourced to the team even if they take on the Admin role.

For more details, the tables below summarize what each of the four roles can do in a project, organization and external team.
