  4. Click “Invite.” This will send your team member an email invitation to sign up and join your account.

Different role types

When adding new users, you will assign them one of three role types. Each role type has access to different features on Instawork.

  • Admin: Access to all features. This is also the only role that can add new team members.

  • Member: Same access as Admin but cannot add, remove, or update roles for other team members.

  • Shift coordinator: Limited access. They can manage live shifts, but don’t have access to view financial information, post or cancel shifts, or update account information. This role is perfect for an onsite manager. Learn more.

The full permission details of each role are displayed below.

FAQ

What is the difference between an admin, member, and shift coordinator?

  • Admins have full access to Instawork, including adding and removing other team members from the account and updating their roles.

  • Members have full access to Instawork, with the exception of adding, updating, or changing team members. They can also view financial information and create or edit shifts.

  • Shift Coordinators have limited access to Instawork. They can view shift details, clock Pros in and out, edit timesheets and rate Pros. They do not have access to any financial information (hourly rates, invoices) and cannot book or cancel shifts.

How do I change or add an admin to my account?

Admins can only remove a member or shift coordinator. They do not have the ability to delete another admin. To update admins on your account, you need to contact our Support Team at partners@instawork.com.
