# Board Permissions

Every Board now carries its own permissions, so the dashboards your team relies on can't be changed by accident. On top of your account role (Admin, Editor, Viewer — see [Add & manage users](https://docs.corraldata.com/kb/getting-started/manage-users)), each user can be granted a role on an individual Board.

### Board roles

| Board role | What it allows                                                                                  |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Owner      | Full control: edit the Board and its widgets, and manage who has access and what role they hold |
| Editor     | Edit the Board and its widgets                                                                  |
| Viewer     | Open and use the Board — filters, date ranges, exports — without changing it                    |

A user's account role still sets their ceiling: someone who is a Viewer on the account can't be made an editor of a Board.

### Protecting a finished Board

Boards built for you by the CorralData team (or by your own data lead) can be locked down so end users get view access only, unless explicitly granted more. Widgets on a protected Board are covered by the same rules — no more surprise edits to a number the whole company watches.

If you open a Board you can't edit, you can still make your own version: choose **Duplicate to edit**, and work on the copy without touching the original.

### Managing access

Board owners manage access from the Board itself — add a teammate, pick their role, or change it later. You can also keep a Board entirely to yourself while you're building ("Only me"), then share it when it's ready.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.corraldata.com/kb/getting-started/board-permissions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
