Admin features
Written By Kevin Ruth

For administrators. These features are permission-gated. If you don't see one of them in your sidebar, your account doesn't have access — most staff won't, and that's expected.
Permissions are granted individually, not by fixed role, so an administrator can give each person exactly what they need. Here are the admin and configuration areas and the permission each one requires.
Permission-gated areas
Team Members
Manage who has access and what they can do. Requires Manage Users.
Adding users
Click Team Members in the sidebar
Click New User
Enter one or more email addresses
Select the default permissions to grant
Save
Each person gets an email to sign in — they'll use a magic link, so there's no password to set up.
Editing a user's permissions
Click the edit (pencil) icon on the user's row to open their detail page
Toggle the permissions on or off
Save
Removing a user
Click the trash icon on the user's row and confirm. They'll lose access right away.
Integrations
Check the health of the connections between Permit Guide and your external systems. Requires Manage Integrations.
Each integration shows its status (OK, Error, or Unknown), when it was last checked, a summary of its configuration, and a test panel you can use to run a connectivity check.
If something shows an error
Contact Govstream.ai support with which integration is failing, any error message shown, and when it last worked if you know.
Other admin areas
Settings & Contact Information — your organization's name, logo, and contact details.
Application Fields — the field definitions used in permit applications.
Knowledge Base — with Manage Content Sources, the page staff normally browse read-only adds buttons to add, process, and archive sources.
Analytics & Feedback — usage dashboards and the submitted-feedback list. See Analytics and feedback review.
