Understanding permissions
Access to Analyst copilot projects is granted at the group level. Each group you add can be assigned one of three permission levels for a project and its assets:
- Viewer: Can view the content within projects, but cannot modify it. Cannot see project access settings.
- Writer: Can view and modify the content of projects. Cannot see project access settings.
- Admin: Can view and modify the content of projects. Can see project access settings.
Project access is determined by group assignment and a user's Analyst copilot role. Viewers are always view-only. Editors inherit the level they're assigned. Admins have full access.
| Analytics role | Analyst Copilot permission |
