What are users on Humap?

There are three types of user on Humap: Subscription Admins, Project Admins, and Contribute users.

Subscription Admins have access to the Subscription platform, where projects and users can be created and managed.

Project Admins manage individual projects but won’t have access to the overarching Subscription platform.

Contribute users can create content on projects with the Contribute feature enabled, but won’t have access to the Project Admin Dashboard or the Subscription platform.
