Roles: read vs read/write

GeoBubbles uses two roles for teammates: Read and Read/Write. Roles are assigned per teammate and apply across every site that teammate has been granted access to.

Read

A Read teammate can:

• View dashboards, prompts, journey analytics, reports, SERP snapshots, and visibility gaps for the sites they're invited to.
• Export data (CSV, PDF reports) for those sites.
• Receive automated email reports.
• Use the in-app chat assistant in read-only mode (queries don't create or change data).

A Read teammate cannot:

• Add, edit, archive, or delete prompts, competitors, cities, or sites.
• Connect or disconnect Search Console / Google Business profiles.
• Change site settings, scoring config, or branding.
• Invite, modify, or remove other teammates.
• Manage billing.

This role is ideal for stakeholders, clients, and read-only analysts who need visibility but should not change the configuration.

Read/Write

A Read/Write teammate can do everything a Read teammate can, plus:

• Add and archive prompts, competitors, cities, and tags.
• Connect / disconnect Search Console and Google Business properties for the sites they have access to.
• Edit site settings (branding, scoring config, recurring schedule, etc.).
• Build and edit reports, segments, and saved views.

What Read/Write still cannot do:

• Manage billing (plan upgrades, payment methods, invoices) — reserved for the workspace owner.
• Invite or remove other teammates — reserved for the workspace owner.
• Delete a whole site — also reserved for the workspace owner.

Workspace owner

The original account that created the workspace is the owner. The owner has full Read/Write on every site plus exclusive access to billing, teammate management, and site deletion. There is exactly one owner per workspace.
