This article relates to managing access groups and roles. Please note that you can have multiple shares for the same group or place. Kisi will allow access if at least one of the shares permits access. This means permissive groups override non-permissive groups
Standard Kisi Place
A user can be issued different roles which will determine what features they can edit. The diagram below gives a general overview of the differences between a regular user, observer, manager, administrator and place owner.
On Kisi's standard plan you can create unlimited managers.

API keys can only be created by entire place admins or place owners. They should only be created by place owners to avoid the API key becoming invalid when a place admin looses their admin rights.
To assign a place wide admin, go to the member, scroll to the bottom to "memberships" and click on "entire place".
On the bottom click on "Role" and change it to "Place Administrator":
Organizations
In general, the Groups (they are called Teams in Organizations) are the same thing as Groups in your old account.

API keys can only be created by Organization Administrators or Organization Owners. As a best practice, we recommend creating API keys from the Organization Owners account, to avoid the API key becoming invalid when an organization admin loses their admin rights.
