Admin Users
Manage administrator accounts that have role-based access to the Unified Admin and Print Editor.
Admin Users are accounts that have been assigned one or more administrative roles, granting them access to the Unified Admin dashboard and admin-mode features in the Print Editor. Unlike Site Users (regular customers), Admin Users are distinguished by having role assignments in the system -- any user with at least one role becomes an admin user.
Use this page to view all admin accounts across your storefronts, create new administrators, manage their roles and permissions, and monitor their activity.
View Admin Users
- From your Unified Admin, go to Users > Admin Users.
- The list displays all users who have at least one administrative role assigned. The grid uses server-side pagination with continuous scrolling.
- To search, use the search panel above the grid to filter by name, email, or username.
- To sort, click any column header.
- Toggle inline flags directly in the grid by clicking the Approver, Mktg Option, Sales Rep, or Tax Exemp checkboxes. Changes are saved immediately.
