Managing Developer User Accounts

This guide explains how to manage users within your developer account using the Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system. This feature allows you to add users to your marketplace account and assign them appropriate roles with specific permissions.

Understanding Roles and Permissions

The RBAC system categorizes developer users into three roles: Owner, Admin, and User. Each role has a distinct set of permissions to ensure appropriate access levels within your developer account.

Roles and Their Permissions

• Owner: The initial user who signs up is designated as the Owner. There can only be one Owner per account. This role has full access to all features and settings, but ownership cannot be transferred.
• Admin: Similar to the Owner but cannot modify the Owner's details. Admins can manage other Admins and Users.
• User: Has restricted access compared to Admins and Owners, limited to certain actions as detailed below.

Maximum Permissions for Each Role

• View apps: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: Yes
• Create and manage apps: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: Yes
• Delete apps: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: No
• Submit for review: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: Yes
• View app earnings: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: No
• Create & manage users: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: No
• View app dashboard: Owner: Yes, Admin: Yes, User: Yes
