The editors’ management allows you to create different accounts for your back-office users. Each account is associated with a profile in order to define the rights and accesses that you give to a person, to one or several of your projects.
You can therefore finely manage access to all or part of the functions of your back office. This article details the different options.
1/ Add an editor
Depending on the package subscribed to OKAST, the number of accounts is limited.
By default it is limited to 3 accounts. To get more, contact the support.
From the home page, go to
> Add a editor .Fill in the fields and activate its status .Then assign access rights to your editor’s projects:
1. Either as Admin, in which case he has access to all projects, all features, and all data. Activate his status with > .
2. Or by assigning one or more roles for each project. Check and uncheck in the drop-down list the roles you wish to assign to your editor.
