Users with administrative rights can edit settings in the Refined Administration. There are three two types of Administrators: 

  • A user who is a Confluence/Jira Administrator can edit all Refined settings. 

  • A user who is manually added as Refined Administrator can edit all Refined settings. 

  • A user who is manually added as Site Administrator can edit site-specific settings.

It can be beneficial to delegate administrator permissions to colleagues, for example when you work with teams who all have different specializations:

  • A support team member can be added as a Site Administrator of your support site.

  • An HR team member can be added as a Site Administrator of your intranet.

  • A designer can be added as Refined Administrator to help out with the look and feel of several sites.
