Last updated on • Disponible en Français
Add a user
If you’re an administrator for your CoderPad account, you can invite and manage users. Just click on the Users in the settings menu at the top right of the screen to see the list of people who’ve already been invited to your account.
If you wish to edit an existing user’s permissions, click on the Edit ✏️ button. If you wish to add a new user, click on + Add user.
Only people with the same email domain name as you can be added to your account.
Once the Add user window is open, fill in the email address(es) you want to add. You can also import a CSV with your colleagues’ email addresses. You’ll then select the role for the new user (Admin or Member) and any team you want them associated with.
The Member and Admin roles come preset with certain roles and permissions.
✅ An administrator can access everything on the account and manage other users.
If you wish to fine-tune these permissions, simply click on the Advanced customization link below the Role dropdown menu. You’ll then be presented with a list of permissions, you can edit them as needed. Click the Invite button to finalize the permissions and send an email invite to the new user.
Edit user permission details
You can edit your colleagues’ permissions by selecting the appropriate access type from the drop down menu in the Customize Permissions window.
To access this window from the main dashboard, click the settings gear icon in the top right of the screen ⚙️, select Users, and then click on the three vertical dots next to the user whose permissions you want to edit and select Edit user.
You’ll see the permission window, and you can either select one of the pre-defined permission sets from the Role drop down, or select Advanced customization for more detailed permission selections.
The following levels are available for each feature:
| Feature | Permission settings |

✅ Some permissions might be set to “Custom” for retro-compatibility reasons.
Delete a user
If you need to delete a user, just make sure that you are one of the administrators of your CoderPad account. Then, click the Users option in the settings dropdown menu in the top right of the screen.
