From the moment you give access to more people on your platform, user roles will have crucial importance. Understanding what user roles exist and what permissions you can grant them will help you organize your system better and make sure that no one has more or fewer rights than they should.

From the Settings tab, select Users and Roles to manage the team that needs access to a ZMP Account, as well as those that require access to parent accounts and/or child accounts.

Managing Teammates

Teammates can be managed from within the Teammates tab. Here, a list of users is displayed along with their:

  • Name

  • Primary Account

  • Role

  • Email Address, and

  • Status.

Hover over a user's row and click the action menu (...) on the extreme right to reveal options to edit, deactivate, and/or permanently remove the user.

Adding a New Teammate

To invite a new team member, click on the Invite Teammates button in the top-right corner.

As the Invite teammates panel slides in from the right side of the window,

  • Set the fields for First Name, Last Name, Email Address, and Display Name (optional).

  • The Primary Account is the top-level account the user should log in to when accessing the platform.

  • Setting the Role gives the user certain permissions. 

Once a user is invited, they will appear as pending in the list of users with access to the account. An invitation email is sent to the user as well. This invitation email has a link the user can click to set their password. 

Managing Roles

The Roles tab displays all the available roles, their descriptions, the account it's in, and the number of users with that role.

Clicking on a role reveals options to edit that role, including what permissions are enabled for it. 

For accounts with a parent/child structure in place, users can be invited to the parent account and be given different levels of access to the child accounts all from the parent account. These are referred to as secondary accounts. 

The Acquisition View of an account can only be seen by users that have the role of Acquisition User. This role can be set for you by Zeta Global. 

Adding a New Role

To add in a new role, click on the New Role button in the top-right corner.

As the Add new Role panel slides in from the right side of the window,

  • Fill in the Name and Description for the role and choose an account the role can be used in

  • Set the Role Permissions.

The default role selection toggle allows you to set the default role of a new ZMP user account being created.

Selective Access

Selective Access is an optional feature in the ZMP that limits the visibility of Experiences, Campaigns, Templates, and Snippets. With Selective Access permission enabled, access to newly created Experiences, Campaigns, Templates, and Snippets is limited to the person that created them in the first place.

Once a new item is created, the owner of that item can share access to that item with other individuals in the account.

For those who should have access to all items regardless of owner, an Ignore Selective Access permission can be enabled for their role, which will ultimately ignore the ownership and visibility limits introduced by enabling Selective Access.

Teams

Teams allow for the creation of groups of users in ZMP to make sharing items in an account with Selective Access enabled easier. With teams, a newly created item can be shared with a team rather than with each individual user that needs access.
