Every member of a tinyanalytics organization has one of three roles: owner, admin, or member. The role decides what they can do — from viewing analytics to managing sites, members, and the organization. Owners have full control, admins manage day-to-day, and members view the data they have access to.

What are the three tinyanalytics roles?

  • Owner — full control, including renaming and deleting the organization. An organization can have more than one owner.
  • Admin — manages sites, settings, members, and teams, but can’t rename or delete the organization.
  • Member — views analytics for the sites they can access, and saves their own personal segments and cohorts.

What each role can do

Anything that creates or changes shared data requires the owner or admin role — that’s the “requires an admin” note you’ll see throughout these guides. A plain member can always view the reports they have access to and save their own personal segments and cohorts.

Rules that protect ownership

  • Only an owner can change another owner’s role.
  • You can’t change your own role — someone else with permission must.
  • A member’s site access can be narrowed with teams: mark them restricted, and they see only their teams’ sites. Owners and admins can’t be restricted.

How do roles relate to site access?

Role controls what you can do; teams control which sites a restricted member can do it on. An unrestricted member has access to every site in the organization; a restricted member is limited to their teams’ sites. Owners and admins always have access to all sites.

Frequently asked questions

An owner has full control, including renaming and deleting the organization. An admin can do everything else — manage sites, settings, members, and teams — but can’t rename or delete the organization. An organization can have more than one owner.
A member can view analytics for the sites they have access to and save their own personal segments and cohorts. Anything that creates or changes shared data — sites, site settings, goals, funnels, annotations, shared segments and cohorts, members, teams, imports — needs an owner or admin.
No. You can’t change your own role — someone else with permission must. Only an owner can change another owner’s role. Both rules protect an organization from losing its ownership.
Use teams. Create a team, grant it the sites that person should see, add them to it, and mark them restricted. A restricted member sees only their teams’ sites. Owners and admins can’t be restricted — they always have access to every site.
