Account roles and permissions

Oniva provides the ability to assign different permission levels to various accounts. The following overview shows the different account roles and the associated permissions.

Illustration of different users with different roles.

Admin roles

Events

Event admins can perform all tasks related to the events assigned to them within the respective workspace, including creating, editing, and managing events. However, they do not have access to the workspace settings. Workspace Admins must register Event Admins in the permission settings. An Event Admin gains access to an event when it is linked with the appropriate permission in the settings. New events created by an Event Admin automatically receive this permission.

Event operators have similar permissions to Event Admins but cannot edit or create events. They can view and edit contact and booking lists, as well as manage and send campaigns. The Event Responsible of an event automatically receives the Event Operator permission, regardless of other permissions.

Workspace admins can view all events within their workspace and manage the workspace settings. They maintain an overview of all events and can adjust the workspace configuration to ensure smooth operation and meeting requirements.

Ticket coordinators

Each account can have a designated ticket coordinator. These individuals can book events or approve booking requests on behalf of the account holder. However, the approval by the ticket coordinator only changes the booking status to "pending." The final approval must be done by an event admin, workspace admin, or platform admin.

Campaigns

Campaign admins are authorized to perform all actions within the assigned campaign groups. This includes fully editing the campaign groups and authorizing additional accounts. They can create, edit, and send campaigns, enabling them to effectively implement the campaign strategy and ensure all relevant information is communicated correctly and on time..

Platform

Platform Admins hold the highest level of permissions within Oniva. In addition to the permissions of an Event Admin, they can create and edit workspaces and configure general platform settings. This role allows them to manage the entire platform and ensure that all activities run smoothly and meet requirements.

Account management

Account management can be granted as a separate permission. Users with this permission can assign any admin role, even if they do not hold these roles themselves.
