Super admin role and restricted resources

What's new?

We are excited to introduce a new layer of permissions with the launch of the Super admin role. This role empowers finance teams with more data privacy controls by allowing Super admins to restrict access to specific resources. Super admins can now designate certain resources as “restricted”, ensuring that only other Super admins can access or manage these resources.

How does it work?

Super admins have exclusive rights to create and manage restricted resources, making them invisible to standard admins.

Example of use case:

  • A Super admin can establish a connection to Bamboo HR, which standard admins won't see.
  • From this connection, the Super admin can create a dataset containing the headcount roster, again, invisible to standard admins.
  • The Super admin can further create a headcount model that remains hidden from standard admins. However, Super admin can still utilize certain variables from this headcount model in another non restricted model, such as an OPEX model, by using the GET() function. They can control the granularity of the data used, ensuring only the necessary details are shared.
  • Finally, the Super admin can construct a space that is restricted to other admins but can still be shared with members to gather their inputs on future hires.
