Monitis sub accounts provide you the capability to flexibly manage user access to your account, enabling only the level of access necessary for the user to fulfill their job function.
The sub accounting system has 3 types of roles:
- Admin – The Admin role provides full access to the dashboard but doesn’t have authorization to terminate the account.
- Operations Admin – the Operations Admin role provides the same access level as Admin but without permission to manage and view Billing information (credit card details, plan details and invoices).
- Viewer – The Viewer role provides read-only access to data for all monitor groups.
- Custom – The Custom role provides read-only or edit access to data for selected monitor groups. In order to facilitate addition of a new Custom role, which is granted for the selected monitor groups, the Group Management view is accessible right from the New Role window so that monitors can be easily assigned and removed to/from monitor groups (see further in this document).

You can select either of the two permissions for the custom role:

The read-only access allows viewing of all data for the selected monitors.

The edit access allows the following permissions:
