Member Roles & Permissions

Understanding the role hierarchy, permission levels, and how to control what members can access.

Last updated March 2, 2026

Role hierarchy

Deskie uses a role-based access control system with the following hierarchy:

  • Workspace Owner — Full access to everything across all locations
  • Workspace Admin — Can manage all locations, members, and settings
  • Location Admin — Can manage members and settings for their assigned location(s)
  • Member — Standard member access: portal, bookings, messages
  • Guest — Limited access, typically for day-pass users or visitors

Assigning roles

Roles are assigned at two levels: workspace-wide and per-location. A user can be a Workspace Admin overall but also have Location Admin access to specific locations. Set roles from the member's profile page under the "Access" tab.

Permission details

Each role grants specific permissions like viewing member data, creating invoices, managing bookings, modifying settings, and controlling access. The permission system is granular — you can see exactly what each role allows in Settings → Permissions.
