Permissions Groups
User Role | Permission Level |
---|---|
Site Collection Administrator | Full control (over site collection and all sub-sites). Please note this is a privileged account typically given to an organization’s IT function and not a typical user. |
Visitors | Have Reading Rights only. |
Members | Have contribution rights (can view, add, update, delete list items and documents). |
Owners | Have full control over site. |
NOTES:
- Site Creators and Administrators can create additional user groups in order to manage unique permissions for those groups of users.
- To delete Unique Permissions, select Delete Unique Permissions from the Site Permissions page. This reverts your sub-site to the permissions held by your parent site.
