Overview of CMS Role and Privileges

Each user who logs into the Content Management System (CMS) has a role assigned to them that controls what actions they can perform.

• The separate services offered by Korbyt are managed separately for CMS access.

  • They appear as separate tabs on the Edit User screen

• CMS Users need to be assigned a role for each system they will be interacting with.

  • They can be at the same level or differ across systems.

• Only the services you have subscribed to will be visible in your tenant.

An individual can be an Administrator of Digital Signage, an Approver for Desktop, and have no access at all to Mobile & Web for Example.
