Adding Admins

The first admin will be set up by a member of the Gigged team during onboarding. After this, it is at the discretion of the initial admin to grant additional admin rights to other users. The Gigged team can assist with adding as many admins as needed during onboarding.

How to Add an Admin Yourself

To add an admin on your own, follow these steps:

1. Log In:

   Use your admin credentials to log in to the platform.

   Note: If this is your first time accessing the admin dashboard, click the "Forgot Password" link to reset your password before logging in.

   

2. Go to the User Section:

   On the left-hand side panel, select the "User" section.

   

3. Create a New Admin:

   Click on the "Create +" button to add a new user.

   

4. Enter User Details:

   • Enter the user’s name and email address.
   • Set "Is Admin" to Yes.
   • Click "Save" to apply the changes.

5. First Time Login for New Admin:

   The new admin will receive an email with instructions. They should log in using their email and click "Forgot Password" to reset their password upon first sign-in.

Granting Admin Rights to an Existing User

If a user is already registered as a user, you can grant them admin rights. This allows them to sign in both as a user on the app and as an admin on the admin dashboard.

Admin Capabilities

Admins have exclusive access to the admin dashboard. All admins can:

• View a high-level overview of platform activity.
• Create and manage additional admin users.
• Create clients and invite them to the platform.
• Modify organisational settings.
• Approve or reject proposals (if the approval setting is enabled).
