Grant Form Permissions to a Role
Users must be granted permissions to create, edit, or assign a Form in CMO. This is done by granting permission to a Role, then all users who are assigned to that Role will have the same permission.
This page details different methods for granting/revoking Form Permissions to roles. Each of the following Role permissions is explained in detail on this page:
- Grant Form Permission by Role: This is a global Admin setting which applies to all users assigned to that role.
- Grant Section / Question Permission by Role: This is a Form-specific setting which allows administrators to grant access to role by Section or Question.
- Permission to Complete Event & Access Permission: This is a Form-specific setting which allows Roles to complete the Event once it is finished. Granting a Role Access Permission enables them to open and view the Form.
