Inviting Users & Setting Permissions
AVAG lets you add unlimited users to your account. You can manage your whole team from one place – controlling who sees what, and what they can do.
To get there, click User management in the left sidebar under the TEAM section.
Inviting a new user
Section titled “Inviting a new user”Click the + Invite user button in the top right corner. A “New User” dialog will appear with the following options:
Email addresses – Enter one or more email addresses, separated by commas. This lets you invite multiple people at once.
Role – Choose one of three roles:
- AVAG Guest – Can view assigned data only. Cannot upload data, delete anything, or create new projects, objects, or layers. Ideal for clients, stakeholders, or anyone who just needs to review results.
- AVAG User – Can view and delete assigned data, upload new data, and create projects, objects, and layers. Suited for field workers and operators who actively collect and manage data.
- AVAG Admin – Has all the same permissions as AVAG User, plus access to User management. Use this role for team leaders or account administrators.
Language – Set the interface language for the invited user. This can be changed later in their own account settings.
Authenticator – Choose how the user will log in: Any (email/password or social login), Microsoft, Google, or Facebook. Note that switching to SSO (single sign-on) will disable username and password login for that user.
Automatically assign new layers – When enabled, if a new dataset is uploaded to any object the user has access to, that new layer will be automatically assigned to them. Great for keeping field teams up to date without manual work.
Assign all existing projects, objects and layers – When enabled, the invited user will immediately get access to all data already uploaded in AVAG. Leave this unchecked if you want to control access more granularly.
Display the option to view AVAG demo data in the main panel – Gives the user access to AVAG’s built-in demo datasets, useful while they’re getting familiar with the platform.
When you’re done, click Save. The invited user will receive an email invitation and will appear under Pending invitations until they accept.
Managing active users
Section titled “Managing active users”Once a user has accepted their invitation, they appear in the Active users table. From here you can see each user’s ID, name, email, phone number, and the time of their last login. Use the icons on the right to edit their settings, share access, or remove them from the account.
Group Management
Section titled “Group Management”The Group Management tab lets you organize users into groups, for example, by team, project, or location. Click + New Group, give it a name and optional description, select which users to include, and choose whether new layers should be automatically assigned to the group. Groups make it easy to manage permissions at scale without having to configure each user individually.
