Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Custom Roles & Permissions

Define exactly who can do what in your Griddo platform. Create custom roles with granular permissions to keep your content secure, your team productive, and your workflows compliant.

The challenge

One size doesn't fit all

Marketing teams, developers, editors, and external collaborators all need different levels of access. Without proper role management, you risk unauthorized changes, content leaks, or bottlenecks that slow your entire team down.

Built-in roles

Six roles out of the box

Griddo ships with six default roles — three mandatory and three optional — that cover the most common team structures. Use them as-is or as a starting point for your custom roles.

Mandatory

Super Admin

Unrestricted access to every setting, user, role, and piece of content. Assign with care — this is the master key to your platform.

Administrator

You can manage all of your site's settings, users and roles. You can create and publish all pages of your site.

Viewer

You can view the content, but you cannot edit it. Perfect for stakeholders and external reviewers.

Optional

Webmaster

You can edit your website, add pages, modules, modify URLs, menus, colours and themes, html tags. You don't manage users, or manage the site configuration.

Editor

You have permission to view, add and edit site content, such as pages and blocks.

SEO Validator

You can manage SEO tags.

Go beyond defaults

Create roles tailored to your organization

Every organization is different. With Griddo's custom roles, you define exactly what each team member can see, create, edit, publish, or delete — down to the content type and field level.

Granular control

Permissions that go deep

Content-type permissions

Control access per content type: pages, blog posts, forms, media, and more.

Field-level access

Show or hide specific fields based on role. Protect sensitive data while keeping workflows fluid.

Workflow stages

Assign permissions per workflow stage: draft, review, publish. Each role sees only what it needs.

Locale restrictions

Limit roles to specific languages. Your Spanish editor won't accidentally modify English content.

API token scoping

Generate API tokens with role-based scopes. Integrations only access what they're explicitly allowed to.

Audit trail

Track every action by user and role. Know who changed what, when, and why.

For every team member

The right access for every role

Role-Based Access Control lets your team members have access rights only to the information they need.
