User management
With Snapforms’ Business, Professional, and Enterprise plans, you can create user accounts for your team members and assign different permissions based on their role.
- Any users added to your organisation (regular user) initially have access only to create and manage their own forms and responses.
- Any user can be assigned view or edit permissions to specific forms by people who manage that form.
- On the Enterprise plan, users can be assigned an organisation role that gives them automatic permissions across all forms in their organisation.
Add a new user
- In the main menu, click Users.
- Click Add User.
- Enter the user’s name and email address.
- Select a role.
- Click Add User.
- The new user should receive an email with instructions on how to set up their account password.
Grant access to a specific form
Any user can be assigned view or edit permissions to specific forms by people who manage that form. Existing users and their roles/permissions are displayed in each form’s security settings.
Anyone with edit permission to the form can grant access to other users by following these steps:
- Open the form in Edit mode.
- Go to Form Settings > Security > Internal User Permissions.
- Select the user’s email from the dropdown list.
- Select the permissions for this form:
- View Form & Responses – allows the user to only view the form design and form responses.
- Edit Form & Responses – allows the user full access to view all areas, and edit the form design and form responses.
- Click Save.
Organisation roles (Enterprise plan only)
Organisation Administrators on the Enterprise plan can assign roles with pre-set permissions to team members.
Roles and permissions apply to all forms within the user’s organisation.
