Changing roles is simple and takes less than a minute:
1
Go to your Account page
2
Open the Team section
3
Find the user whose role you want to change
4
Use the dropdown menu to select a new role

Role Overview

Here’s a breakdown of the six user roles available:

External Topic Assignment

Best for external partners or freelancers who should only work on their own content.
No upload capability; No access to projects or dashboards of others by default.

Administrator

Best for power users who manage subscriptions, teams, and integrations across the platform.
Access to the projects, questions and reports of all users; Team and subscription management permissions.

Full Data Access

Best for senior team members who need access to all projects and reports without admin responsibilities.
Upload capability; Access to projects & dashboards of all team members.

Project Manager

Best for team leads who manage their own projects but don’t require access to others’ work.
Upload capability; Only full access to projects created by oneself, but access to all topic collections and fine-tuned AIs from all team members.

Internal Analyst

Best for team members working across projects, without needing downloads or reports.
No upload capability; Permission to edit and access projects of all team members, but no permission to download projects and no access to reports of others.

Analyst

Best for stakeholders or junior team members who only need to view and explore results.
Permission to view and visualize projects of all team members, but no permission to edit or download any projects.
