Manage your organisation’s users

To view who’s associated with your organisation, go to your organisation’s page in IATI Account and select « View/Edit Users » from the right-hand menu:

A list of users will be displayed in a table at the bottom of your organisation’s page:

Only admin users can make changes to your organisation’s user list. We encourage admins to regularly check this list to ensure that it is up to date.

User permissions

There are three different roles that a user can have within your organisation:

• Contributor - this is the lowest permission level. Contributors can add data files or update file metadata.

• Editor - In addition to contributor permissions, editors can delete data files and update their organisation’s information.

• Admin - this is the highest permission level. In addition to editor permissions, admins can approve new users to join the organisation and set user permission levels. They can also update the public visibility of their organisation’s data files.

Admins can change another user’s role by editing it in the “Users” table. Select a new option from the “role” column dropdown menu for the intended user:

Saving the change will make it effective immediately:

Add a new user

All new users should follow the instructions on how to register with IATI.

When a user has registered with IATI and requested to join an existing organisation, all admin users of that organisation will receive an email notification.

One of the admins will need to approve the new user’s request, which will grant them access to the organisation’s information and data files.

Remove a user

You should remove a user from your organisation if they are no longer involved in your IATI publishing.

Tick the checkbox in the « Remove » column next to the intended user and click « Save Changes »:

Removing a user will remove them from your organisation, but not delete their IATI account. For information on account deletion, see how to manage your profile <edit_user_profile>.
