Seats & Shared permission groups in UI Bakery

There are three types of seats available in UI Bakery: Developer, End-user & Shared permission groups. Developers and End-users be assigned individual roles and permissions, giving you granular control over access to apps, data sources, and pages.

• A team member on a Developer seat can develop, deploy and edit apps, as well as manage users (depending on the role assigned).

• A team member on an End-user seat can use the applications assigned to his role, but NOT edit or develop them.

• A Shared permission group (SPG, unlimited seats) is a special type of custom user role that can include Use-only permissions for apps and data sources.

Shared permission group, explained

A Shared permission group, as mentioned before, is basically a special type of custom user role. If you assign users to this group, they will have only Use permissions for apps and data sources.

• One SPG can include an unlimited number of users - so if you have a large group needing the same permissions, you can use a single Shared Permission Group for them.

• If you assign users ONLY to SPGs, they won't be included in the count of End-user seats.

• You have to pay for each SPG separately - for example, if you have two large groups of internal and external users (requiring different permissions), you'll need to buy two SPGs for them.

• SPGs are better suited for users needing the same level of access, so opt for standard End-user seats if you need really granular permissions and access.

• You can use both SPGs and End-user seats together, no limitations here. That is actually the approach we recommend to make the most of our pricing options.

To sum it up, Shared permission groups are perfect for large user groups (25 and expanding) with the same permissions.
