To make sure that your StoryChief workspace is managed perfectly, you can assign roles to users. The different roles are Owner, Publisher, Writer, Guest writer, and Client. Each has its unique set of user permissions. The table below also includes links to specific articles for usage and features!

Watch our Academy video 📹 for a step-by-step guide.

Roles overview:

  • The owner has access to everything within the workspace. It's the only user that gets access to rename or deleting a workspace. There can only be one owner per workspace.

  • Publishers get access to everything within the workspace except renaming or deleting the workspace. They also have access to all settings and can add/delete users.

  • Writers get access to create, see and edit all articles and social posts, including their individual reports. However, they don't have access to the Insights tab and cannot publish content. They can only see the campaigns they are assigned to.

  • Guest writers get access to create new content and to see the ones they have been invited to. They don't have access to any statistics, any workspace settings and cannot publish content.

  • Clients get access to create new content and to see the ones they have been invited to. They don't have access to any statistics, any workspace settings and cannot publish content. They can only see public comments so the content team can freely work on internal collaboration and provide clients with cleaner content pieces.
