🧠 Understanding Teams and Permissions

Introduction

In Eversend, managing who has access to resources and who can perform certain actions is crucial for smooth campaign operations. Teams and Permissions play a key role in organizing members, defining roles, and ensuring that the right people have the correct level of access. This article will explain how teams are structured, how permissions work, and how the hierarchy impacts resource creation and management.

Teams and Hierarchies

In Eversend, members are grouped into Teams. Teams help organize users and define how permissions are assigned. Teams can have multiple levels, and these levels determine the hierarchy of access.

• Team Structure: A Team in Eversend can include both individual members and other Teams as sub-teams. This allows for flexibility in managing large groups of users. For instance, a "Marketing Team" may have a smaller "Social Media Team" as a sub-team.
• Hierarchy of Permissions: Permissions flow up the hierarchy. If a resource is shared with a sub-team, then all higher-level teams that manage that sub-team will also have access. This ensures that team leads and managers have visibility and control over the resources their teams use.

Resource Creation Rights

Another key aspect of managing campaigns in Eversend is controlling who can create resources. Resource creation rights help ensure that only authorized members or teams can create critical components like domains, servers, or campaigns.

• Admin Control: Admins have the ability to define which members or teams can create specific types of resources. This is important for maintaining order and preventing unauthorized changes that could impact campaign performance.
• Team-Based Creation Rights: Teams can also be given creation rights. For example, the "IT Team" might be allowed to create Servers, while the "Marketing Team" can create Traffic Campaigns. This helps streamline workflows by making sure the right people are responsible for the right tasks.

Summary

Teams and Permissions in Eversend are designed to provide a clear structure for managing access and responsibilities. Teams can be organized hierarchically, with permissions flowing up the chain to ensure that managers have oversight. Admins can control who has the right to create resources, ensuring campaigns are set up and managed properly. This structure helps keep everything organized, secure, and efficient, allowing your marketing efforts to run smoothly.
