Understand the Admin and User roles and their permissions.
3 min readLast updated: May 2026
Introduction
InfoBox Platform has two user roles: Admin and User. Each role has different permissions that control what the person can see and do in the platform.
Admin Role
Admins have full access to the platform:
- Manage all screens and screen groups.
- Upload, edit, and delete all content.
- Add, edit, and remove users.
- Change organization-level settings.
- Access the full media library.
- View and manage all scheduled content.
- Assign screens and content to other users.
User Role
Users have limited, focused access:
- Manage screens assigned to them.
- Upload and manage content on their assigned screens.
- View the media library and use available files.
- Cannot add or remove other users.
- Cannot change organization-level settings.
- Cannot access screens that are not assigned to them.
Choosing the Right Role
Guidelines for role assignment:
- Use Admin for IT managers, marketing leads, or anyone who needs full control.
- Use User for team members who manage specific screens or locations.
- You can change a user's role at any time without affecting their content.
Summary
The two-role system keeps InfoBox simple while providing appropriate access control. Admins manage the entire platform, while Users focus on their assigned screens and content.
