[ARCHIVED] Admin Permissions

[rparedez]

By default, are all Admins able to see the same items, or does the system have different types of admins?  Like Content Manager (that can control Commons) and other admins that control other areas?

Hi  @rparedez  Thank You for your question.

Yes, there is a hierarchy of Admin access.

This is an important guide about the Admin role What is the Admin role? but does not break down the Admin hierarchy. This might offer a little more clarity https://s3.amazonaws.com/tr-learncanvas/docs/Canvas_Permissions_Account.pdf  

There isn't too much difference though. 

This would be a good list of guides to bookmark Canvas Admin Guide - Table of Contents  

And a good group to join https://community.canvaslms.com/groups/admins 

Sing out if you need a hand.
