# Organizations, Projects, Groups and Roles

Xponent supports a permissions model that allows you to control access to organizations and projects, as well as the ability to create groups. These roles are managed from the [User](/v1/docs/adding-users-to-xponent-journey-hub) and [Project](/v1/docs/creating-a-project) Administration screens. Organizational roles will trump the Project Roles.

- Organization Roles
  - Administrative Roles
    - Administrative roles have rights over all projects in that organization and are the only users allowed to create projects in an organization
  - Types of Administrative Roles
    - **Owner**
      - All Administrative rights in an organization
    - **Operator**
      - All Administrative rights in an organization*
    - **Configurer**
      - Most admin rights but limited operational capabilities
  - Non-Administrative Roles
    - **Member**
      - No rights by default. Rights are granted through project roles
- Project Roles
  - **Admin**
    - Can create connections
    - Can assign users to project
    - Can enable journey discovery analytics dashboard
  - **Developer**
    - Can use the project editor (graphs, adaptors, logic)
    - Can use the journey mapper and metrics
    - Can see the Performance Dashboard
  - **Strategist**
    - Can use the journey mapper and metrics
    - Can see the Performance Dashboard and Journey Discovery Analytics
- **Groups**
  - Collection of users to make administration easier

Currently, the only difference between Owner and Operator is that Owners can create additional owners.
