# How To Manage SciNote User Roles at Every Level

## You can customize user access permissions at the Project level, Experiment level, and Task level in SciNote.

To learn more about what each user access role can do, [read this article](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/en/knowledge/how-to-set-up-user-roles-in-scinote?hsLang=en).

#### **To manage user access roles at the Project level:**

1. **Click** on the "+" sign next to the project members (Access column from the Projects table) 
     1. ![Managing SciNote Project Access](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Managing%20SciNote%20Project%20Access.jpg?width=591&height=154&name=Managing%20SciNote%20Project%20Access.jpg)
2. **Navigate** to the user you want to change and **click** **on current user role** 
     1. ***\*To grant new project access to an individual user or a set a default user role for all members of the workspace***, start typing in the 'Search members' bar at the top of the manager access window. The user must be active in SciNote and added to the current Workspace to gain project access.
     2. ![SciNote Project Grant New Access](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hs-fs/hubfs/SciNote%20Project%20Grant%20New%20Access.png?width=532&height=94&name=SciNote%20Project%20Grant%20New%20Access.png)

Access Roles set at the Project level automatically flow down ([are inherited](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/en/knowledge/how-are-permissions-and-roles-inherited-downstream?hsLang=en)) to the Experiments and Tasks within that Project unless specifically changed.

- E.g., if you're an 'Owner' at the Project level, you are 'Owner' for the Experiments and Tasks in that Project by default. If you don't need to have 'Owner' rights for all Experiments in the Project, you can change the inherited access role to lower permissions for individual Experiments or Tasks, like 'User' or 'Viewer'.
- You can [reset a changed user access role](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/en/knowledge/how-to-reset-user-role-permissions-on-a-project?hsLang=en) on an Experiment or Task by clicking 'inherit role' to revert it back to the role set on the Project level

Organization Admins and Workspace Owners can change roles at the project level as long as they already have access to the Workspace where the Project is stored.

4. A dropdown will appear; **choose** the new role
5. After changing the experiment role, the window will update with the new role and the location it was granted.
6. Close out the "**Manage access for \[Experiment Name\]**" pop-out
