Access & Roles

Access to features is controlled by permission grants assigned to your Admin Dashboard user account. Each grant unlocks one or more sections of the platform, and your account may have several.

If you navigate to a page you do not have access to, you will see a "Not authorised" message and be redirected away.

What access covers

Broadly, access is split by area of the platform — for example, viewing or editing the program schedule, reviewing or administering abstracts, handling support cases, managing branding assets, viewing orders, managing key people, and working with documents (viewing, submitting, sharing, or administering versions). Some areas also distinguish between viewing and managing — for instance, branding assets are visible to anyone who can reach the page, but editing them needs a separate grant.

Requesting access

Contact your system administrator to have access added to your account. Access is managed inside the Admin Dashboard.

Your profile

You can view your profile at any time from the navigation. The profile page links your Admin Dashboard login to a Person record in the congress database, which gives you your committee positions and session assignments.

If your profile is not linked, use the "Link Profile" button and search for your name to connect your account.
