User scopes

Manage access to requests faster and more efficiently.

With User scopes you can organize users, groups and organizations which match the same preferences into many reusable presets that can be used in permission pools across th entire app.

Warning

Deleting scopes can’t be undone and it may influence the app configuration.

If a selected scope has been used in the app configuration, by deleting this scope you are notified about the affected configuration. Any changes to scopes will be reflected in configured access restrictions and visible to all users included in this scope.

Using scopes

User scopes can facilitate the entire app configuration. Wherever there is access to be given, User scopes will save you plenty of time you would normally spend on manually giving permissions to users.

It’s possible to employ User scopes in:

  • the Settings section to quickly give or restrict access to Requests page for all the users organized in a particular scope.

  • the Fields configuration section to set the custom fields’ visibility. To do so, find Scopes in the filter bar and select the scope of your choice. Then easily change permissions for this scope.

Note
The same user, group or organization may be found in many User scopes. There is no limitation in terms of scopes’ content and quantity.
