In this guide

Key sections from this documentation page.

My Permissions is a read-only explanation of your current access. Open Settings > You > My Permissions.

Use the page's Overview and My Role tabs to review the areas you can access and your assigned role.

Overview

The Overview tab groups permission-tracked areas by category. Each row shows your access level for the area (View only, Can edit, or Full access) or, when access is restricted, which of the six roles grant it. Accessible rows link to the corresponding feature.

Use the search field to filter areas by name or description.

My Role

The My Role tab shows your role under Your Role and explains what it covers. Every member holds one role. Owners see the Admin role, because ownership includes full access. A member who has not been given a role yet sees a notice instead; the Overview tab still explains their available and restricted areas.

All Permissions

The All Permissions tab lists the six roles an administrator can assign (Admin, Privileged, Pet Editor, Adoption & Foster Counselor, Volunteer, and Viewer) with what each one covers, and highlights the role you currently hold. This is useful when discussing an access change with an administrator. Team Members describes each role in detail.

The footer identifies the organization administrator to contact when that email is available.

Changing Access

You cannot change your role on this page. Organization administrators manage invitations and choose each member's role from Settings > Organization > Members.

If a page is missing from your sidebar but this page says you can open it, nothing is restricting you: an administrator left it out of the shared sidebar layout. See Sidebar Navigation for where to find it in the meantime.

Permissions

Every signed-in user can review their own permissions.
