Permissions and roles

How permissions work in Timelint: predictable roles, clean boundaries, and fewer ‘permission archaeology’ moments.

Permissions should be boring. The goal is predictable access, not endless configuration.

Principles

  • use roles with clean edges
  • avoid per-ticket exceptions where possible
  • keep client access inside the portal (not in the internal app)

Managing users (what it looks like)

Account users
Add users, assign roles, and keep access predictable.
Add user
Invite by email and choose a role.

Recommended role shape

Keep the number of roles small and obvious. A good default:

  • Owner/Admin: configuration + security sensitive actions
  • Member: delivery work
  • Client viewer: see portal-only content (keep them out of the internal app)
