# Roles and permissions
|
|
|
|
## User roles
|
|
|
|
User roles make it convenient to configure different permissions for different
|
|
users in your organization. You can decide what role a user will have when you
|
|
[send them an invitation](/help/invite-new-users), and later [change a user's
|
|
role](/help/roles-and-permissions#change-a-users-role) if needed.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
|
|
Learn about [stream permissions](/help/stream-permissions), including
|
|
**public** and **private** streams.
|
|
|
|
* **Organization owner**: Can manage users, public streams, organization
|
|
settings, and billing. Organization owners can do anything that an
|
|
organization administrator can do.
|
|
|
|
* **Organization administrator**: Can manage users, public streams, and
|
|
organization settings. Cannot make someone an owner, or change an existing
|
|
owner's role.
|
|
|
|
* **Moderator**: Can do anything that members can do, plus additional
|
|
permissions [configured](/help/roles-and-permissions#manage-permissions) by
|
|
your organization.
|
|
|
|
* **Member**: This is the default role for most users. Members have access to
|
|
all public streams. You can [configure different
|
|
permissions](/help/restrict-permissions-of-new-members) for **new members**
|
|
and **full members**, which is especially useful for [moderating open
|
|
organizations](/help/moderating-open-organizations). New members automatically
|
|
become full members after a configurable waiting period.
|
|
|
|
* **Guest**: Can view and send messages in streams they have been added to.
|
|
Guests cannot see other streams, unless they have been specifically added to
|
|
the stream. See [guest users documentation](/help/guest-users) for additional
|
|
details and configuration options.
|
|
|
|
* **Billing administrator**: The user who upgrades the organization to
|
|
a paid plan is, in addition to their normal role, a billing
|
|
administrator. Billing administrators can manage billing for the organization.
|
|
For example, someone from your billing department can be a **billing
|
|
administrator**, but not an **administrator** for the organization.
