Dashboard roles and access
Dashboard uses the same permission policies as Opera admin. What you see in the sidebar depends on your organization, event, and station roles.
Organization roles
Organization roles are given in Users (people icon in the side menu): Add user, then choose a Role. The roles are:
- Admin
- Devices
- Api
- Guest
- Staff
Event roles
Event roles are given in the event’s Settings → Users (Add user, then choose a Role). The roles are:
- Promoter
- Support
- Device register
- Staff manager
- Gates manager
- Monetary manager
- Vendor manager
- Pos money manager
- Pos stock manager
- Api manager
Station roles
Station roles are given in a station’s Settings → Users (Add user, then choose a Role). They control who can see and manage the station in Dashboard. The roles are:
- Manager
- Operator
- Viewer
Station roles in Dashboard are separate from operator permissions, which decide which stations a tag can log in to on the Touch app.
What this means in practice
- Two people can open the same event and see different sidebar items.
- Analytics may hide reports or scope data to stations you manage.
- If Loyalty or Tips is missing from the menu, check Settings → Modules and your role.
Analytics roles Why Analytics reports may differ by user.
