Xink'sXink role-based access control capability allows Xink Administrators to assign a login to other admins with different levels of permissions based on their job role.
Example #1 - IT handoff login to the marketing department:
IT set up the Xink account for pilot users. Test that everything meets expectations. Then IT add a login to the marketing department and sets roles. IT handoff the login to the marketing department.
Example #2 - Marketing handoff login to the IT department:
Marketing set up the Xink account for pilot users in the marketing department. Marketing is happy and adds a login to IT. IT use their login to automate/integrate into the company infrastructure. This is a one-time setup for the IT department.

How to change permissions
Click the gear wheel and select 'Permissions':
Account Administrator
- This role is assigned to the first account administrator created during signup.
- This user has access to the DPA.
- This user can do everything, incl. add/delete other administrators.
- Only an account admin can promote other admins.
Several safeguards are placed into the engine to prevent account admins from creating system locks and additional support load.
- Account Administrator (Admin) is the only role that grants permission to access the Admins (e.g. other admins management) section and Preferences section where essential data might be changed (Office 365 sync, Azure AD sync, etc.).
- While logged on, Account Admin cannot delete or deactivate their own user record. Also, they can’t change their own permissions at all. Controls are not disabled, but if they try – they get an error message.
- Account Admin can change email settings (Username for the system) for other admins and himself. No email verification is performed, so he can make a typo and block himself from accessing the system in this way.
- Emails must be unique across Xink accounts. Thus, if there is john.doe@gmail.com registered in any Xink account, there is no way to add him to another account.
