Learn about the different permission levels available for Gearbelt Contributors (internal users) and what each level allows them to do.

Written by Nina Yang

Gearbelt Contributors are internal users who access your Gearbelt workspace. There are two permission levels: Admin and Member.

Use Admin for full workspace control, and Member for restricted access that limits users to their own records and safe actions.

Admin

Admin is the highest permission level available for Gearbelt Contributors. Admins can:

  • View: forms, activity, assets, lists, locations, users, schedules, QR codes, and compliance documents

  • Edit: form templates, asset lists, lists, locations, users, contacts, schedules, QR codes, and compliance documents

  • Set and manage deployment rules

  • Add or remove users

  • Share access links

  • Export data

  • Manage organisation settings, including the organisation logo and brand colour

Member

Member is a restricted permission level for Gearbelt Contributors. Members can:

  • View: assets, documents, issues, inspection records, repair records, schedule form records, schedule checks, work orders, and location & reading logs

  • View only: schedules, deployment rules, form templates, settings, and the users page

  • Create: documents, issues, inspection records, repair records, work orders, and location & reading logs

  • Edit: their own documents, issues, inspection records, repair records, schedule form records, schedule checks, and work orders

  • Delete: their own issues, inspection records, repair records, and schedule form records

  • Complete schedule checks

Members can only edit and delete records they've created themselves. They cannot invite or remove users, void or delete work orders, or change workspace settings.
