Roles & Permissions

TLDR: Four roles control workspace access: Owner (full control), Admin (manage members), Editor (create and edit), Viewer (read-only). Choose based on what each person needs to do.

Role Descriptions

Owner

The workspace creator. Has full control including billing, deletion, and all management capabilities. There is exactly one owner per workspace.

Admin

Trusted team leads who can manage members and settings, but cannot access billing or delete the workspace. Use for project managers or team leads.

Editor

Contributors who can create and edit simulations but cannot manage other members. Use for team members actively building simulations.

Viewer

Read-only access. Can view and run simulations but cannot make changes. Use for stakeholders who need to review work without editing.

Changing Roles

Owners and Admins can change roles:

Go to workspace settings or the members panel
Click the three-dot menu next to a member
Select the new role
Changes take effect immediately

Removing Members

When you remove a member, they lose access immediately. Their edits remain in the simulations—removing someone doesn't undo their work.

Best Practices

Least privilege: Give people the minimum role they need
Limit Admins: Only promote to Admin those who need member management
Use Viewers: Great for stakeholders, executives, or clients reviewing work
Audit regularly: Review members periodically and remove those no longer needed

Default Role Setting

In workspace settings, you can set the default role for new invites. Consider defaulting to "Viewer" and upgrading as needed.
