Understanding Roles
Organization Level Roles
These roles define a user's access to the entire workspace.
Organization Admin: Has full, unrestricted access to all data and settings across the entire organization. They can manage members, create and delete teams, and see all missions and assets.
Member: Has general access to the organization but cannot change high-level settings. Their access to specific data (like missions and assets) is determined by their team assignments and team-level roles.
Team Level Roles
These roles define a user's function and permissions within a specific team.
Team Admin: To manage a specific team. They can add or remove members from that team, assign roles to them, and manage team-specific settings.
Pilot: To be assigned as the Pilot in Command for missions created within that team.
Observer: To be assigned as a Visual Observer or other support member for missions within that team.
Payload Operator: To be assigned to operate specific payloads (like a camera or sensor) during a team's missions.
