Permission Role: Viewer

Have more questions? Submit a request
Give users access to certain Guesty features by granting them the most relevant permissions. The information below will help you understand which functionality a Guesty user will/will not have access to when assigning them a Viewer permission role.

Important:

When assigning a multi-unit to a user, assign both the multi-unit and its sub-units to allow them to view and access the listings as required.

Tip:

Check out our permissions overview to learn more about each role and to see examples of personas that the role can apply to within your company. Learn how to assign or remove permission roles to or from Guesty users.

Each Guesty user has access to different search suggestions, based on the permission role that they have been assigned. See the information below.
