Role model (recommended baseline)
| Role | Typical responsibility | Write capability |
|---|---|---|
| SuperAdmin | Platform ownership and high-risk changes | Full |
| Moderator | Daily operations and catalog management | Broad |
| CustomerSupport | Customer issue handling | Limited |
| SupportBot | Automated read-oriented workflows | Minimal/None |
Enterprises should map these roles to internal SOPs before production launch.
Good operational practices
- Use separate admin accounts per human operator.
- Rotate credentials on a fixed schedule.
- Keep support and platform ownership roles separate.
- Review audit records regularly.
What admins cannot do
- Use invitation links after they are consumed or expired
- Exceed role permissions assigned by policy
- Safely share one admin credential across multiple operators
- Skip audit and governance requirements for sensitive actions
