Every member of an organisation has one role. The screen hides what a role can't do, and the server checks every request against the role too.
The six roles
- Owner
- Everything, including billing, deleting the organisation and transferring ownership.
- Admin
- Everything except billing ownership, deleting the organisation and transferring ownership.
- Manager
- Builds and launches campaigns, sequences, templates, forms and segments; reads reports.
- Agent
- Their assigned conversations, plus contacts, orders and bookings. Can send templates in the inbox, never broadcasts.
- Analyst
- Read-only reports and dashboards.
- Billing
- Plan, invoices and usage. No contact data.
What each role can do
"Own" means only their own or assigned records. "If granted" means only when given the extra permission below.

Extra permissions
Owners and Admins can grant these on top of a member's role (Settings → Team & roles → Edit):
- See all inbox conversations
- See full phone numbers
- Export reports
Invite and change roles
- Owners and Admins invite people by email from Settings → Team & roles and choose their role. The person accepts from the email.
- A role change or removal takes effect straight away, even for someone who is signed in at that moment.
- Only an Owner can delete the organisation or transfer ownership. There is no screen for this yet: write to support from the Owner's email address.
- The Roles tab on that page shows the same table as above.
Two-factor sign-in and support access
- Anyone can turn on two-factor sign-in with an authenticator app in My security, and get one-time recovery codes. An Owner or Admin can require it for every member (Settings → General → Security).
- If our support team ever needs to look inside your organisation, they must give a reason; access is limited to 60 minutes, read-only by default, can never launch broadcasts, export data or reveal numbers, and every request is shown in your audit log.
