Overview
In MW Content, users are created and assigned roles to manage digital signage content, devices, and workflows based on access levels. The platform supports role-based access control (RBAC), allowing for secure, collaborative content management.
As a Tenant Admin, you can create and manage users within your tenant and define what networks, locations, and features they have access to.
Why User Roles Matter
Each user is assigned a role that defines their permissions. This ensures tasks like content creation, approval, and monitoring are performed by the right individuals — without exposing sensitive system-wide controls.
Available User Roles
Role | Access Scope |
Tenant Admin | Full access to all tenant features, networks, devices, users, and content. |
Project Admin | Manage settings and content for assigned networks only |
Content Creator |
|
Content Approver |
|
Media Partner | Limited access to view and manage playlists assigned to them |
Monitor User | View-only access to device status, real-time monitoring, and remote restart tools |
🔐 Only Tenant Admins can create or assign users to these roles.
