What are permissions?

After you have finished adding users into your group, the next thing you will want to do is set permissions to give your officials, contacts, and group admins access to the group. Permissions determine what your users can and cannot do in Arbiter. You can set permissions in mass or individually for each user. To better understand what each permission means and what it allows the user to do, click the appropriate link below to view the permission descriptions for officials, group admins, or contacts.

How do I set permissions to users in mass?

 Go to www.arbiter.io and sign into your admin account.

1. Click Settings, then Click Permissions.

Note: If you are a sub-administrator you might not have the permissions sub-tab. If you do not see the sub-tab that means your Primary Administrator has not given you the permission to edit permissions.

2. Next to "Set Permissions For", Select which group of users you are giving these permissions: Group Admin, Officials, Contacts.

3. Next to "Allow users to", Use the drop-down menu to Select which Permission to give the users.

• Below you will see two boxes. The left box is labeled Not Allowed and the right box is labeled Allowed. All users in the Not Allowed box do not have the permission selected under Allow users to drop down. The users in the Allowed box have that permission.

4. To give users the selected permission, highlight the name of the users in the Not Allowed box (left).

• If you click and drag you can select more than one user, or use the “Select All” function to highlight all your officials

5. Click the right arrow. This will move the user to the Allowed box (right) and give them the specified permission.

 

6. To remove a permission, highlight the user’s name and click on the left arrow to move the user from the Allowed box to the Not Allowed box.

How do I set permissions to users individually?

1. Click People.

2. Click the desired user’s sub-tab (Officials, Group Admins, Contacts).

3. Click the three dots next to the user’s name.

4. Click Permissions.

 5. Check the box for each desired permission and Click Save. To remove a permission, uncheck the box and click save.
