Registering Users: Adding Roles

event April 9, 2025 inbox_text Registering User

In DigitalChalk, user roles determine the level of access and functionality available to each user. 

Here’s how to add roles to users:

  1. Navigate to the Users page by clicking “Lead” and then “Users” in the left-hand menu.
  2. Click on “Add User” or find an existing user to edit.
  3. In the user creation/editing form, you’ll find a section to set the user’s role.
  4. Select the appropriate role from the dropdown menu. Options include:
    • Course Administrator
    • Organization Administrator
    • Offering Facilitator
    • Organization Developer

Important notes:

  • The Organization Administrator role has the highest level of access, including the ability to manage finances, users, and system settings.
  • Course Administrators can create and manage courses, grades, and discussions.
  • Offering Facilitators can view and monitor student activity in assigned offerings.
  • Administrative roles cannot be assigned during bulk user imports and must be added individually.
  • Organization Developer only grants access to API keys

Remember to click “Save” after assigning or changing a user’s role.
