ON THIS PAGE

 A user account may be associated with one of six roles: Administrators, Creators, General Managers, Network Managers, Publishers, or Viewers. These roles determine what you can view, edit, create, and delete within the WebUI (along with components of BrightAuthor that are applicable to the BrightSign Network).

In this document, most section titles include subtitles that let you know which user account roles may perform actions in that section. Note that Administrators can perform all possible actions in the WebUI.

Administrators

Being assigned to the Administrators role gives you access to all the features offered on the BrightSign Network. This is the only role that allows you to edit the account status of other users: as an Administrator, you can add new users, delete existing users, and assign users to different roles. You can also create and edit Custom Roles on the Account Customization page.

Note

The first user of a BrightSign Network account will automatically be assigned to the Administrators role. If you are not the first user on your account, you will need to have an Administrator assign you this role.
