User roles and permissions explained
Each user in a Team has one of these roles.
Role | Description |
---|---|
Owner | Has full authority for all tasks in a Team, including cost and billing information. That includes full access to all Teamspaces, whether or not they are assigned to them. A Team has only one Owner, the user who created the Team. |
Admin | Has the same permissions as the Owner, except for cost and billing. An Admin may access all Teamspaces, whether or not they are assigned to them. A Team can have more than one Admin. |
Member | Can send and receive only files that they have permission to access. You can control a Member’s access with Teamspaces. Assign this role to collaborators who send and receive files with you. |
Guest | Can only interact with Portals that they are permitted to access. Assign this role to external users to download files that you send them. A Guest user can use MASV Desktop App to automate downloads. |
Integration Manager | Can only manage cloud integrations. These users are typically in your IT team and have the expertise to work with cloud providers. Only an Owner or Admin user can connect a cloud integration to a Portal. |

Password protection
Password protection on Portals and downloads applies to everyone, whether or not they have a MASV account, no matter what their MASV role is:
-
Before uploading to a password-protected Portal, the sender must enter the password.
-
Before downloading a password-protected package, the recipient must enter the password.
Portal recipients
You can add recipients for Portals. These recipients do not need a MASV account and they can be different than the users in the Teamspace that a Portal is in.
For each file uploaded to a Portal, each recipient receives an email notification with a link to download the package. A recipient with a user account for the Portal’s Team can also log in to download the package, depending on their role.
