# Manage Users and Groups

There are three roles in Brainspace: User, Group Admin and Super Admin. While a Super Admin has administrative rights across all groups, User and Group Admin permissions are based on groups to which they belong.

For example, a User may be promoted to a Group Admin within a group, giving them administrative privileges within that group only.

The following table shows the permissions and functionality of each user role.

| **Permissions and Functionality** | **Super Admin** (Permissions are across all Groups) | **Group Admin** (Permissions are only within the Groups you are assigned as a Group Admin) | **User** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Manage Users | X |  |  |
| Manage Group Membership | X | X1 |  |
| Manage Builds | X | X |  |
| Manage Datasets | X | X |  |
| Manage Servers | X |  |  |
| Manage Groups | X |  |  |
| Manage Integrations | X |  |  |
| Create Classifiers | X | X |  |
| Create Datasets | X | X |  |
| Use Datasets | X | X | X |
| Archiving Datasets | X |  |  |
| Creating Usage Reports | X |  |  |

X1 - Group Admins can manage memberships for users in Groups for which they are an Admin.
