Administrators

Who are the administrators in Buddy?

Administrator rights greatly expand the scope of activities that a user can perform in the workspace – as well as the responsibility and risk it involves. Administrator is a person who manages entirety of the workspace and has access to every project.

Permissions overview

In addition, admins can:

• Create and delete projects
• Manage project folders
• Edit and delete pipelines
• Browse pipeline history
• Add and remove users to and from projects and groups
• See every member of the workspace in the People tab
• Grant and remove admin rights to and from other users
• Delete users from workspace
• Create and manage permission sets
• Add webhooks to external services
• Add and manage workspace variables
• Browse workspace access logs

Admin project restrictions

By default, all users can add projects and invite new members. You can restrict that option by selecting the 'New projects can only be created by administrators' option in the Security tab of the Workspace Settings
