Managing Users Permission(s)

Updated on

System administrators have access to edit users' permissions in Kelvin. For example, system administrators may want to limit which users can view students' timelines, and receive notifications for student requests. (For more information about student requests see: What is a Student Request?) User permissions can be updated in a few simple steps.

1.  Select the purple circle icon (that has the first letter of your first name) in the upper right hand corner.

2.   Select Settings.

3.  Select Permissions.

4.  Adjust permissions to allow specific users/custom groups to:

  • View student timelines and receive notifications of requests to speak to an adult (View student timeline and requests).
  • Create Pulses (Create Pulse surveys).
  • Create Pulse Templates from previously built Pulses (Manage Pulse Templates).
  • Opt in/opt out student(s) from taking Pulses (Manage student opt-outs).

OR TO

  • Limit a users' access so that they will be unable to see student identifiable information (Limited Access).
