How to change user roles in Pairaphrase
This article explains how to change user roles within your Pairaphrase account.
Whether you're assigning Admin rights to a team member or adjusting a user's access level, Pairaphrase provides flexible and secure role management to support your organization’s workflow.
User Roles in Pairaphrase
Pairaphrase supports three distinct roles:
- Owner – Has full access to all features and settings. The Owner is the account holder responsible for billing and account-level permissions. Only one Owner per account.
- Admin – Can manage users, including inviting new users and changing their roles (except for the Owner role). Admins can also access all files and account settings within their group.
- User – Can translate files and use the platform’s features within their assigned group, but cannot manage users or settings.
Who Can Change Roles?
- Owners: Can assign any user as Admin or User.
- Admins: Can invite new users and assign roles as either Admin or User.
- Users: Cannot change roles or manage user settings.
How to Change a User Role
- Log in to your Pairaphrase account at app.pairaphrase.com.
- Click on “Admin” in the top navigation bar and select “Manage Users.”
- Find the user you want to edit and click the pencil icon under the “Edit” column.
- In the Edit window:
- Use the “Role” dropdown menu to choose Admin or User.
- Adjust other settings if needed (e.g., group assignments).
- Click “Save” to confirm your changes.
Pro Tips
- Admins cannot remove or edit the Owner.
- Owners can transfer ownership from their User Profile.
- For added security, assign Admin roles only to users responsible for managing team access and settings.
