Channel User Permission Levels
Channel users may have one of four permission levels:
- Member: This access level allows the user to view content only.
- Contributor: This access level allows the user to view and add content to a channel. Content added to the channel may be subject to moderation, if the channel is configured to require moderation.
- Moderator: This access level allows the user to view and add content. The user can approve content additions to a channel that requires moderation.
- Manager: This access level provides administrator permissions and is the same level as the channel owner. Managers may add, update or delete content and users.
