Roles and Permissions

A guide to setting up user roles to access the right areas of Lumin

Written by James Mckechnie

Set up user roles to control what users can see and access in Lumin.

Lumin uses two types of roles:

  • Global Roles – apply across all athletes and groups

  • Group Roles – apply only to a specific group


Global Roles

Global roles can be used to give users access to all athletes in Lumin. Each role provides a different level of access.

Assign Global Roles

  1. Go to AdminUsers

  2. Find the user

  3. Click the three-dots icon

  4. Select Manage Roles

  5. Turn on the required global roles

Changes apply across all groups and athletes.

Notes

  • You can assign multiple roles

  • Permissions are combined across roles

  • Example: A user with both Performance Manager and Medical Manager roles can access both areas


Group-specific Roles

Group-specific Roles scope permissions to a particular group in Lumin, limiting access to athletes in that group. Group roles are more commonly used if your team is divided into age groups or mens/womens groups. This ensures that coaches only have access to the athletes that they need to.

Assign Group Roles (Method 1: From Users)

  1. Go to AdminUsers

  2. Find the user

  3. Click the three-dots icon

  4. Select Manage Roles

  5. Scroll to the Group Roles section

  6. Select a group

  7. Turn on the required role

The role will only apply to that group.


OR

Assign Group Roles (Method 2: From Groups)

Use this method to update multiple users in the same group.

  1. Go to AdminGroups

  2. Select a group and click Update

  3. Find the user

  4. Click the three-dots icon

  5. Select Manage Roles

  6. Turn on the required roles

  7. Click Save
