Administrators for cloud and on-premises environments

This article defines the different types of administrators in Typefi Server environments.

Typefi Cloud administrators

In the Typefi Cloud environment, there are two types of administrators:

1. Typefi Administrator: This is a Typefi employee. They manage your organisation’s entire Typefi Cloud IT environment. They set up and manage user accounts, assign roles, configure settings, monitor usage and security logs, and provide first-level support and troubleshooting.
2. Customer Administrator: This is a designated user within your organisation who is granted elevated access to manage their team’s specific settings—for example, roles and privileges. Additional privileges can be granted—or restricted—based on your requirements.

For more information on how roles are structured and how privileges can be customised, see the Working with roles article.

On-premises administrators (Typefi Workgroup and Desktop)

In an on-premises environment, a local administrator is the individual within your organisation who has full administrative control over your Typefi Server. This person is typically an IT professional or a system administrator.

A Local Administrator is responsible for:

• Managing system configurations and settings
• Directly managing: users, roles, privileges, and group folder permissions
• Setting up and managing workflows.
