Role-Based Access Control

3.3 Role-Based Access Control

ACTIONBRIDGE uses a clear and flexible role-based access control (RBAC) model at the project level. Roles determine what users can see and do within each project — from task editing to member management.

Available Roles

  • Admin: Full access to all project features, including:
    • Managing project settings and linked Teams tab
    • Adding/removing members and changing their roles
    • Creating, editing, deleting tasks
    • Configuring workflows, priorities, and integrations
  • Editor (default role): Focused on execution. Can:
    • Create and edit tasks
    • Comment and mention team members
    • Change task status, priority, and assignments
    • View task activity and deadlines
  • Viewer: Read-only access. Can:
    • View tasks and comments
    • Track progress and read change logs

Default Role Assignment

  • When a user joins a project (e.g. via Microsoft Teams tab), they are assigned the Editor role by default.
  • Project admins can later upgrade or downgrade the role as needed.

Assigning and Changing Roles

  • Only project admins can assign or change roles in the Members tab of Project Settings.
  • Changes take effect immediately and are scoped to the current project only.

Best Practices

  • Keep at least two Admins per project for redundancy and safety.
  • Use the Viewer role for external reviewers, clients, or stakeholders.
  • Audit roles regularly to maintain appropriate access control.

With project-scoped roles and default permissions that match user intent, ACTIONBRIDGE supports effective teamwork while keeping control, visibility, and responsibility clear.
