Who can do what

Access follows monday.com's own user types rather than adding a second permission system.

The line that matters is between using a workflow and editing one.

#A few things worth knowing

  • These are monday.com user types. Changing what somebody can do means changing their monday.com role.

  • Guests can act on items but cannot redesign the process, which is usually the behaviour you want.

  • Seat count and user type are separate: your plan limits how many people, their role limits what they do.



Using a workflow and editing one are different rights.
