DataForge Admin manual

An admin is a manager of a self-hosted DataForge instance. They belong to the root company and with the right permissions, they are capable of managing the entire instance of DataForge. This includes the management of modules and quotas of descendant companies.

While a DataForge manager has a lot of options to manage DataForge for their own company and all it’s descendants, the DataForge Admin is uniquely capable of managing the entirety of the DataForge instance. This difference is especially noticeable when working on the modules and quotas of other companies. While a DataForge manager of a company can also see the details pages of all descendant companies, they are not capable of enabling or disabling different modules for the company or grant quota limits.
