Team roles

Know the difference between future OverSkill editor roles and the app-user roles inside your generated app.

OverSkill uses the word role in two different places, and they mean different things.

App-user roles are available today

App-user roles control what people can do inside the app you built.

For example, your generated app might have:

  • Admins who can manage records
  • Members who can create their own items
  • Customers who can only view or purchase
  • Moderators who can review submissions

These roles affect the live app experience. They do not give someone access to the OverSkill editor.

Team editor roles are not broadly available yet

Team roles like Owner, Admin, Editor, and Viewer are the planned model for deciding who can work inside OverSkill with you.

That team-editing flow is not broadly available right now. Until it is, copying an editor link or sharing a preview link does not make someone an editor.

Quick difference

  • App-user role: controls what someone can do in the generated app.
  • Team/editor role: would control what someone can do in OverSkill itself.
  • Share link: lets someone view or use the app, depending on visibility settings.
  • Editor link: only works for someone who already has the right OverSkill access.

If you need another builder

Contact OverSkill support if you urgently need a teammate, contractor, or support person to help edit a specific app. We can help with the safest current workaround while full collaborator access is still being finalized.
