There are several default member’s permission roles in Quire. Below we will list out the permissions for each role and what information they can view and manage in the Quire workspace.

You can customize the permissions for every role in the Organization Members settings.

Customizing the permission roles is only available in the Professional, Premium, Enterprise plans. More information can be found at our pricing page.

Master Organization Level

Once you have linked a Free organization to a Premium organization, the Premium organization will turn into a Master Organization by default.

You may then create a new permission role for the Premium organization and grant Master Access and Global Access permissions to that role. This way, members assigned with this newly created role will be able to access all the organizations and projects linked to your Master Organization.
