Group roles overview
In addition to global roles Mediagraph also supports group based roles for members and staff. This allows the group’s content and members to be managed by someone who does not have full control over the entire account.
Group roles include:
- Group Member - Can access Group Libraries according to permissions.
- Group Tagger - Can tag material in the Group Library and Sandbox.
- Group Library Manager - Has control over the Group Library and Group membership.
- Group Content Managers (Available on Enterprise plans) - Can access the Group storage folder in the File Vault.

Pro Tip: We recommend enabling Group managers when you first create your Group by using one of the Quick Setup full-feature settings options. Both of the full-feature settings options will enable Group managers and create test accounts for each role.
