Change a user's role

Someone who started as a Power User now looks after integrations, or an admin is moving to a read-only role. Roles change from the user’s … menu, and the change applies at their next page load.

Before you start

• You are an admin or owner. Admins can assign User, Power User and Admin; only owners can assign Owner or change an existing owner.
• You cannot change your own role; the menu is disabled on your row.

Settings > General > Current Users lists everyone who can sign in, with role and status.

Steps

1. In Pyn, open Settings in the left navigation, then Current Users under General.

2. Find the user and open the … menu at the end of their row.

3. Select Assign User Role, Assign Power User Role, Assign Admin Role or, as an owner, Assign Owner Role. The role they already hold is not offered.

4. The Role chip in the row updates.

Note

With single sign-on group mappings in place, the identity provider sets the role on every sign-in and a change made here lasts until then. Change the person’s group in your provider instead; see Single sign-on.

What you should see

The row shows the new role: Owner, Admin, Power or User. The person sees the change the next time Pyn loads: a new admin gains Directory, Addons and Settings in the left navigation; a user who lost Power User no longer sees Flows.
