Experience Registration Status

A user's experience status indicates the user's current registration status in the employee experience (mobile app and web experience).

• Created - added to the program's list of users, but the user has not started to register in the employee experience yet.
• Invited - invitation to register for the employee experience has been sent to the user.
• Registering - started to register but has not completed registration yet. Depending on the program, the user may be able to see public content (shareable content open to all users).
• Registered - completed registration and can fully access the employee experience, including the ability to share content.

There is no registration status for Studio.

Blocked Status

If a user appears as Blocked then they are blocked from accessing either the employee experience or Studio and they will not receive emails or notifications from the program.

Program Role

A user's program role indicates the level of permission to access your program - employee experience only or employee experience and Studio. Studio-level roles have different levels of access within Studio.

Member

Not able to access Studio, only allowed to access the employee experience (mobile app or web experience). Experience status indicates if the Member can access the full feed or must still complete registration.

Analyst

Able to see the Analyze page under Measure in Studio for a specific program.

Channel Contributor

Only able to see the Planner page under Publish and has restricted access to content based on assigned channels. See more detail in our guide to leveraging Channel Contributors.

Publisher

Able to see pages under both Publish and Measure in Studio for a specific program.

Program Manager

Able to see all sections (Publish, Connect, Measure, Manage, Configure) of Studio for a specific program. Able to grant (or demote) other Program Managers, Publishers, Channel Contributors, and Analysts.

Administrator

Able to see all sections of Studio for all programs within an organization in Studio. Able to edit the role and notification settings of all users including Administrators and other Studio users. 

Administrator accounts are unique from other roles as they operate at the organization level instead of the program level. If your organization has more than one program, you may want at least one Administrator to help manage all of the programs.

Administrator accounts are managed through a specific program's user page like other users, but an Administrator's account appears in all programs within the program's organization. For example, if you create an Administrator in one program, they will become an Administrator in all programs within that organization.

In contrast, a user can be a Member of one program and a Program Manager in another program within the same organization. If the user is promoted to Administrator they would instantly become an Administrator in all programs within the organization.
