Managing permissions
TrilbyTV allows administrators to manage permissions and control who can upload, edit, or approve content across the system. This guide explains how to configure user roles and permissions to maintain a secure and organised workflow for your digital signage team.
Permissions are used to determine who can access certain features of TrilbyTV, such as who can upload or moderate content and who can manage your TrilbyTV account or Players.
You are given some default Permission Groups when you sign up but you can create your own, or edit existing groups.
NOTE
Any groups marked as Default will be assigned to new users when they register. It does not affect existing users.
