Permission Types

  1. User: A normal user capable of performing all the usual functions in SourceWhale.

  2. Super-User: All the permissions of a user, plus the ability to edit teammate's campaigns and send from them.

  3. Viewers: Can see everything a user can see but can't make any changes.

  4. Alias: An account from which another account can send emails. Cannot access SourceWhale itself.

Admins: Every team in SourceWhale has an admin. Admins can be a User, Super User, or Viewer, depending on how they want to use the platform, and they can add and delete users from the admin panel.

Note: If you are a Super-User and an Admin, you will be able to edit your teammate's campaigns.
