Users and Roles

In SAM V1, users are assigned to roles. Roles are used to determine what permissions are granted. Permissions regulate what data users see and what functions they can perform.

Functions include adding, editing, viewing or deleting data. For example, a role can be setup so that users in the role can view records in a table but not add records to the table.

Both table and field level permissions exist for roles. For example, a role can be setup to either deny access to an entire table with SAM V1, or deny access to select fields within a table.

Refer to the QuickBase help on roles and permissions for a more in-depth explanation.

Pre-Defined Roles

The following roles are defined in SAM V1:

Additional roles can be defined based on the permission needs defined by the customer.
