QEST Platform Documentation Working Version 

Applies to Construction Hive

Managing Projects

In addition to the company roles that may be granted to users (see Construction Hive User Administration and Rights), additional roles may be granted at a project level.

Project roles are managed on the Project Permissions page in Construction Hive, which is accessible via the Edit Permissions link on any project overview page. This page provides the ability to grant extra rights to users that are members of the project.

Regardless of the settings here, all users will have access to documents that they publish and those documents published to them.

Project User Roles

User roles are defined on the Project Permissions page. The rights discussed below for each role apply only for the project that the user is a part of.

Administrator

Project Administrators will be granted all rights without the need to grant additional permissions, including the ability to view and publish documents, configure exports, add and remove project members, and configure which roles project members have access to.

Viewer

Project Viewers will be granted permission to view, download and forward any document published for the project, even if the report was not directly distributed to the user.

Publisher

Project Publishers will be granted permission to publish new documents under the project via the Construction Hive website.

Member

Project Members will be granted permissions to view, download and forward any document published under the project, and also publish new documents via the Construction Hive website. In effect, this incorporates both the Viewer and Publisher permissions into one role.

Report User

Project Report Users will be granted permissions to project analytic reports.

All Reports

Users will be granted permissions to the “All Reports' project analytic reports group, which includes all project-level analytics reports.

Users with no roles

If a user is a member of the project but has no roles granted, they will not be granted any additional permissions on the project, and cannot view any documents on the project that were not explicitly distributed to them.

These users will however be available in the list of recipients available to a user to select when they are forwarding or publishing a report for this project.
