Examples
Example of a read-only supervisor role
By default, supervisors have the right to intervene in the participants' sessions. If supervisors should not be able to intervene, this permission must be de-activated in the supervisor role.
Example of a scheduler role who has access to all schedules
By default, schedulers only have access to the schedules they created themselves. If schedulers should have access to all schedules (including, for example, the schedules that are created by API), the option Access to all schedules should be activated in the section Extended access.
Example of an extra author role to be able to use metadata with limited access.
