Permissions of Workspace Owners, Admins, Members#

The permissions granted to users depend on the role they have been assigned. For instance, administrators hold extensive workspace permissions, allowing them full control over the workspace settings, enabling them to create and manage events effortlessly. On the other hand, members possess more limited workspace permissions, often restricted to their own user settings and emails/people attributes:

1Admin: This role possesses all access and edit rights in the workspace settings and can create events.

2Member: This role can only edit their own user settings and emails/people attributes, and they have the ability to create events.

Additionally, if the user is also the workspace owner, they will have the option to delete the workspace or other members.
