Simplified permissions
We've added a new account option to simplify how permissions for websites work.
Before now every website you added was only visible to:
- the person who added it, and
- all account owners
This meant that many people had to override the permissions for each website manually, and if you had a lot of websites or users this could become a real pain.
To simplify this, we've added a new option under Organization settings:
This option allows you to grant to all of your users the rights to see, contribute to, or manage new reports by default. The default setting – Only the creator of a website has rights to see it – works as it did before. For new Silktide customers, the default option is Everyone can contribute to new reports.
Note: changing this setting will only affect future reports that your team creates. If you have a lot of existing websites and you want to update all of their permissions in one go just let us know and we'll do that for you.
