Permissions and User Management

Invite people to your organization or a specific project directly and grant the appropriate access.

Tilladelser

With the help of roles, you can define whether users should have access only to the Editor or project settings (e.g., integrations, content management, etc.) or organization settings (e.g., authentication, billing, etc.).

Below you can see the roles and permissions users can have in Crowdin Enterprise:

  • Owner – a person who created an organization and has complete control over it. The owner can invite users to the organization and manage their access, manage vendors, create projects and groups, upload source and translation files to the projects, set up integrations, edit organization settings, etc.
  • Admin – has similar rights as an organization owner except the ability to delete an organization.
  • Manager – depending on the Permission granularity settings, managers can be assigned on the organization, group and subgroup, and project levels. They inherit manager access to all the child entities of the parent entity (i.e., organization, group and subgroup). This user type can’t manage vendors, invite or manage users on the organization level, or edit organization settings.
    • Organization Manager – can create and manage projects within the whole organization (including inviting people to projects and managing resources) and can access all the groups and subgroups.
    • Group Manager – can create and manage projects within the group (including inviting people to projects and managing resources) and inherit manager access to all the subgroups of the managed group.
    • Project Manager – can manage only the project they are invited to.
    • Language Coordinator – can manage certain features of a project only within languages they have access to. Language coordinators can translate and approve strings, manage project members and teams, generate project reports, create tasks, and pre-translate the project content. Unlike managers, they do not have access to other project settings (e.g., project files, integrations, etc.).
    • Developer – сan upload files, edit translatable text, connect integrations, and use the API. Cannot manage project tasks, members and reports.
  • Contributor (i.e., Translator and Proofreader) – allows users to view projects, tasks, and workflow steps to which they are assigned, access the Editor on corresponding workflow steps, generate personal translation reports, and communicate with other project members.
    • Proofreader – can translate and approve strings. Doesn’t have access to project settings.
    • Translator – can translate strings and vote for translations added by other members. Doesn’t have access to project settings.
  • Vendors – separate organizations providing professional translation services. After you invite a vendor to your project, the vendor organization receives a copy of the assigned workflow step in the Incoming Projects tab of their organization.

Inviting People to the Organization

When adding people to your organization, you can choose whether to grant them admin or workspace manager permissions or add them with no access to the workspace and configure their permissions later. An exception is crowdsourcing projects, which are visible to all organization members. Once you invite people to the organization, you can then invite them to specific projects or assign them to workflow steps.

To invite users to your organization, follow these steps:

  1. Open your organization’s Workspace and select Users on the left sidebar.
  2. In the Users tab, click Invite users in the lower-right corner.
    Tilføj organisationsbruger
  3. Specify the email addresses of the people you want to invite and click Send invite.
    Send invitation to Organization

Once a user joins your organization, you can manage their permissions, track their contributions, update profile information, monitor their last activity, grant admin and workspace manager access, or block the user if necessary.
