Platform Roles
Roles describe what actions each user has permission to do within the level in which they have access. There are three different roles a user can have:
Manager - Can manage user access and all aspects of organizations, sites, and exhibits
Developer - Can view organizations/sites and can develop exhibits
Viewer - Can only interact with existing exhibits
Each newly created organization or site user has the “Viewer” role as default, but this role can be changed via the Organization, Site, or Exhibit screen (depending on the user level).

Restricting Sites or Exhibits
By default, if a user is added to the organization, they will also be added to all sites and exhibits within that organization. This includes any future sites or exhibits that are created. Organization users can be manually removed from a site or exhibit to restrict access.
Similarly, if a user is added to the site, they will also be added to all exhibits within that site. This includes any future exhibits that are created. Site users can be manually removed from an exhibit to restrict access.
Adding an Organization User
Granular Exhibit User Permissions
For each exhibit, user permissions for the real-time signals of that exhibit can be granularly customized. By default, all platform roles can manipulate the real-time signals.
Expand a user on the “Users” tab within an exhibit to show all of the real-time signals (statuses, settings, and controls) for an exhibit. For each item, you can set the permission per user to:
Hidden - that field will not be visible in the UI for that user
Read Only - the field will be visible for that user, but the value is not editable
Read and Write - the field will be visible for that user and the value will be editable
