Run your group

Roles and permissions

Decide who owns the group, who runs it and who moderates.

  • Start with the built-in roles.
  • The owner can make custom roles with just the permissions people need.
  • A role decides which settings and moderation tools someone can use.

Custom roles can't let someone delete the group or manage role definitions. Only the owner can do those things.

Built-in roles cover owners, admins, moderators and members. A group can add its own roles too, such as an event organizer.
