Users & Roles

With ContentKing you never pay per seat, so you’re not limited by the number of team members you can add to your account.

User roles

There are four different user roles with different levels of access in ContentKing: Viewer, Editor, Manager, and Admin.

Viewers

Viewers have read-only access and can’t manage the customization features such as adding or editing segments, control issue ignoring or change shared column sets. On top of that, they can’t make any changes to the website or account settings, or invite other users.

By default, Viewers have access to all websites in the account, but their access can also be limited to selected websites only. This option can be useful when you are a digital marketing agency and you want to give your clients access to their websites in ContentKing.

Editors

Editors can't make any changes that would impact the subscription or billing, and they cannot manage or invite users. However, they can make changes to the website and feature settings, such as customize the segments, control issue ignoring, and connect integrations to the website.

By default, Editors have access to all websites in the account, but their access can also be limited to selected websites only (same as with Viewers).

Managers

Users with this role have full account access, allowing them to change both website and account settings and invite other people.

Managers can also manage team member settings such as changing their role, which websites they have access to, and for which websites they should receive emails and alerts.

Admins

Admin is the highest-level role in ContentKing and this role is only available on the Enterprise plan (see our Pricing).

On top of all Manager rights, Admins can also manage the Organization Access Control settings such as setting allowed domains, enforcing 2FA in all user accounts, and manage the rights of the Managers in the account.

If you are interested in this role, don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
