Moderator Roles and Permissions

You can find the moderation dashboard by logging into the Dashboard, selecting the Chat application you want to moderate, and choosing moderation.

Adding a Moderator to Your Stream Organization

While moderators are hopefully trusted members of your team or site, they are not as trusted as an Admin. Default access to the Stream Dashboard provides access to destructive options for managing data and altering app settings.

This is why we added the dedicated moderator role. A dedicated moderator has read-only access to the data on your Stream dashboard, except for actions provided through the moderation dashboard.

To add a dedicated moderator:

Open the Dashboard. Then, select Invite Members.

By using invite members, you can bring up the invite modal.

Enter the email of the person you want to invite and select the moderator role.

The invite modal has a field for email address, the permissions profile, and a message to the recipient

Click send and then, as an optional step, remind the person you sent it to until they accept it.

Congratulations! You now have a new moderator who is ready to use the moderation dashboard without messing up any of your data or settings.
