Understanding User Roles & Permissions in MagicBrief

Last updated: February 20, 2026

Managing access correctly is critical to keeping your workspace secure and organized, especially as your team grows.

Below is a breakdown of each user role in MagicBrief and what level of access they have.

Owner

There is only one Owner per workspace.

The Owner has full control over:

• Billing
• Plan details
• Subscription changes
• User management
• All data and reporting access

If changes need to be made to billing, plan tier, or subscription status, the Owner must take action.

Admins have nearly all Owner-level controls, except billing.

Admins can:

• Invite users to the organization
• Remove users
• Change user roles and permissions
• Manage ad account access
• Access all reports and data

Admins cannot modify billing or subscription settings.

Editors have broad operational access but limited governance controls.

Editors can:

• View all reports in Insights, Inspire, and Brief
• Invite users to the organization

Editors cannot:

• Delete users
• Change user roles or permissions
• Modify billing
• Remove other users

Important: Editors can send workspace invites, so be mindful when granting this role.

Viewers have read-only access.

They can:

• View reports in the Insights tab
• View content in the Inspire tab
• View content in the Brief tab

They cannot invite users or modify any permissions.

Guests have the most limited access.

Guests can:

• View reports only within the specific ad account(s) they are invited to

Guests cannot:

• Access the full organization
• View other ad accounts
• Invite additional users
• Modify permissions

This is the recommended role for external collaborators, partners, or clients who only need scoped access.

To update a user’s role:

We recommend reviewing roles periodically to ensure users have the appropriate level of access for their responsibilities.
