Team Seats, Roles, and Permissions

TEAM ADVANTAGE AND TEAM PREMIER FEATURES: Read about roles within these specific team plans. If you have an Enterprise plan, go to Enterprise Team Seats, Roles, and Permissions.

Your seat and role on a team control what permissions you have within your account and how you can work together with your team.

The Primary Admin invites people to fill a seat (an account) and assigns the seat a role. Someone's seat and role set the permissions within their account and what they can do on the team.

There are 2 seats available on Team Advantage or Team Premier Plans:

  • Full access seats have full access survey permissions and can share surveys. Full access seats can be added one by one.
  • Contributor seats have limited survey permissions and focus on one section of shared surveys, like just the Analyze section. Contributor seats can be added in bundles of 2 at a time.

The seat determines the role someone can have on the team.

Contributor seat. They have limited survey permissions—full access to analyze the results of surveys shared with them, can view and comment on the survey design, and view the collectors used to send the survey.

Primary Admins can view the seat and role of everyone on the team from the Manage Users tab.

To go to the Manage Users tab:

  1. Select My Team from the main navigation.
  2. Select Manage Users.

Here's what people in each role can do on your team:

Contributor seats focus on one area of a survey—the survey design, collecting responses, or analyzing results. Team members need to share surveys with Analysts so they have surveys to analyze.

Here's what Analysts can do with the team's shared surveys:

  • Exports, shared data pages, and dashboards
  • Unlimited rules and filters on surveys shared with you

* This table shows what an Analyst can do if given the default access levels. Survey owners can edit permissions to prevent Analysts from accessing the Collect Responses section.

TIP! If you're an Analyst and need additional permissions, contact your Primary Admin.
