On the Skeepers Feedback Management platform, you have the ability to create and manage different types of access for your collaborators.
Depending on your requirements, it is possible to assign different types of rights to allow access to more or fewer elements within the solution. In this article, we detail everything you need to know about access management on the platform: who handles it, how to manage it, and what limitations apply.
Access Management Glossary
A Skeepers Feedback Management account is the space dedicated to your organization on the Feedback Management platform. There are three types of accounts:
- A standard account is a classic account dedicated to one company/entity, with no interaction with any other Skeepers Feedback Management account.
- A parent account is a "super account" that oversees several child accounts. This type of account is common for large international groups that want easy access to the content of their national entities, subsidiaries, or owned brands.
- A child account is a standard account linked to a parent account.
A user is an individual access to your organization’s Skeepers account on the Feedback Management platform. A number of rights and roles can be assigned to a user.
A recipient is an individual access limited to certain shared elements. The elements shared with recipients (in particular dashboards) are shared at the initiative of a user or an administrator. Technically, a recipient is a user with extremely restricted rights limited to read-only access with no possibility of modification within the platform.
An administrator (also called the account’s operational manager) is a "super user" who holds admin access to your organization’s Skeepers account on the Feedback Management platform. They are usually appointed at the beginning of the partnership with Skeepers. Thereafter, they manage the creation and administration of Skeepers Feedback Management access for your organization’s account. They hold the following right:
A user or recipient right is an authorization, a privilege assigned to a user. Depending on whether the item is checked or unchecked, the user will be able to access a feature or not. Only administrators can modify user rights.
An account permission is an authorization assigned to your organization’s specific Skeepers account. Permissions are managed exclusively by the Skeepers Feedback Management teams (Support or Professional Services if subscribed to a feature).
Details of Rights to Grant on the Platform
If you would like to learn more about the rights available on the platform, we invite you to read the article The different roles and rights available on the platform. There you will find the content of each right as well as our recommended “bundles” of rights to assign for each role.
Who manages access to the Skeepers Feedback Management platform?
The management of user and recipient access is handled locally for each Skeepers account.
For security reasons, neither Skeepers Support nor your Customer Success Manager is authorized to manage your organization’s access (creation, modification, or deletion of access, modification of rights). You are fully autonomous. We therefore invite you to contact the administrator / operational manager of your organization’s account for the following needs:
- User creation or deletion
- Modification of a user’s rights
- Recipient creation or deletion
- Modification of a recipient’s rights
- Generation of a shared link for a recipient
If in doubt, you can identify a Skeepers account administrator as this distinctive right is activated on their user account:

Share a dashboard with a recipient or user
You have the option to share a dashboard by email with a user, a recipient, or a specific email address. We detail the sharing procedure in our dedicated article.
Depending on your needs, you can filter the dashboard view to global data or to a "filtered" view on specific items. Example: A regional manager (recipient) who should only access data for their area.
If you want to share a dashboard with recipients/users with a filtered view, we invite you to assign properties to a user/recipient as explained in this article.
Note that only an administrator can assign one or more properties to a user/recipient profile. Once the property is configured, each user can generate a dashboard share by email or URL with a filtered view based on the properties already set for a user/recipient (e.g., Marseille store that only has access to its own store’s data).
