A2. About: Chorus and people - NEW

Introduction

There are three levels of account-holders in Chorus: Users, site admins, and external users. 

There is no limit to the number of user accounts you can create for your Chorus site.

About: Users

• Chorus users are all account-holders who have been granted storage capacity in their home space. 
• All users have a profile, desk of tools, home space, and primary space. 
• Site admins are also users. 
  
  

About: Site admins

• A site admin is a user who has been given access to Admin tools on their desk. These tools are hidden to other users. 
• Site admins must sign in, or 'elevate', to access these tools. When they are not elevated, site admins continue to work in Chorus as regular users. 
• There can be one or many site admins in a Chorus site.
• Site admins have global powers in a Chorus site. They can create, administrate, and delete all spaces, users, and files.
• Site admins can impersonate all other users and access the home space of any user.
  
  

About: External users

• External users have no storage capacity in their home space. 
• They are temporary users created for ad-hoc work in a specific Chorus space. 
• External users cannot view, edit, upload, download, share, or publish files unless invited to do so in a specific Chorus space or folder.
• External users cannot delete any item from a Chorus site.*
