Adding an Organization Admin or Co-Admin

In this article:

Organization Admins vs Co-Admins

Admins are users that you trust to manage your Keycafe system. There are three levels of admin permissions:

  1. Owner Admin - The owner of the Organization and initial admin, who has full access and management capabilities. There is only one per Organization.
  2. Organization Admin - They can fully manage the entire organization and all entities within it, with the exception of billing details.
  3. Co-Admin - They can manage a single entity like a key, key group, or location.

Admins and Integrations

Note that integrations are set up on a per-user basis, meaning no co-admins or organization admins can view or manage the integrations of other users. However, any bookings created through integrations are treated like any other booking and can be seen by the relevant co-admins of the key and all organization admins.
