Inviting and Removing Content Automation Users

This article applies to the following Content Automation permission levels: 

❌  Contributor ❌  Author ❌  Designer  ✅  Admin

Key terms

Document: Documents can be created by users from their available suite of templates. These documents can then have their content edited based on the Inputs that are available in that template. The starting point for a document's content is the template's default content. An admin can limit users' access to only certain variations of a template.

Content Automation Template: Content Automation Templates are files that act as a starting point when creating documents. They contain pre-formatted elements to help you design your collateral according to your brand's style guidelines. Each Content Automation Template is populated with and controlled by a number of Inputs that allow users to edit the document's content.

  3. Fill out the user’s name and email address.

  4. Assign the appropriate user role. Authors are content authors who only have access to projects and documents; Designers have access to creating templates and Admins have access to everything.
    You can also determine if authors are exported restricted. After making changes to a document, exported restricted authors will need to request approval before exporting.

  5. Add any teams the new user will be a part of. If they are an author, they will not be able to access or create Projects or Documents until they are a member of a team.

  7. Select Create.

Deleting a user will not delete their projects or documents so team members can still access them unless they are set to private. It is recommended that any documents are re-assigned prior to deleting a user.
