Permissions (Owner only)

Only the Owner of a list can manage its permissions.
Within this dialog, the Owner is always displayed alongside the other users, but this entry cannot be modified or removed.

The Permissions Modal

To edit a list’s permissions, open the List Manager and access the list’s edit view in one of the following ways:

  • To set permissions for a new list, click + New on the Page Toolbar.
  • To change the permissions of an existing list (available in Grid View only), click Edit on the Page Toolbar.

Once in edit mode, click Manage Permissions in the Page Toolbar to open the Permissions dialog. If you don’t see the Permissions button, it means you are not the owner of this list.

This dialog includes two or three buttons:

  • Add Role — Add new permissions.
  • Delete Role — Remove existing permissions.
  • Edit Role (Hidden) — Modify existing permissions. This option appears only when a user or group is selected.

It also includes two tabs:

  • Users — Manage permissions assigned to individual users.
  • Groups — Manage permissions assigned to user groups.

Available List Roles

Notes & behavior

  • Changes affect what actions are shown elsewhere (e.g., Edit button on the list pages). If someone just gained permissions, they may need to Refresh to see the updated actions.
  • Permissions are managed per list.
