Roles and permissions


Article summary

Before you begin

This page provides an overview of the roles available in LiveStream Pro and their respective descriptions.

Summary

The table below summarizes the actions associated with each role in LiveStream Pro. This role-based access control ensures that users can perform their tasks without compromising application security or integrity.

Additionally, it allows administrators to manage user access and permissions as the organization grows or roles evolve, supporting scalability.

Roles Description

Four roles are currently available in LiveStream Pro, listed below:

  • Administrator: An administrator has access to all parts of the product: Channel settings, User management, Event setup and Studio.
  • Editor: An Editor can create, edit and delete events but they have no access to Channel settings, User Management or Studio.
  • Producer: A Producer can manage live events and moderate the Chat/QA in the Studio. They cannot create/edit events or access Channel settings or User Management.
  • Moderator: A Moderator can moderate the Chat/QA in the Moderation Dashboard but they don't have access to other parts of the Studio nor the Channel settings, User management or Event setup.

Stacking permissions

If you assign multiple roles to a user, they will receive all the permissions associated with each assigned role.

Example: A user with both the Editor and Producer roles will have the following permissions:

  • Full access to creating and editing events
  • Operating events in Studio
  • Generating reports
  • Managing on-demand mode
