Note: The information below is shown for an administrator role. If you have another role in Hyperproof, like compliance manager, user, or limited access user, your access may be limited due to your organizational role and object-level permissions. We recommend viewing the organization roles and permissions article and object roles article to learn more about permissions.
Facepile is Hyperproof's term for the area where you can view who has access to a particular object, such as a control. Depending on your permissions, you can add, remove, or change users' roles. Work items and proof can also be made private via the facepile.
You'll use the facepile any time you want to add a user to an object or adjust a user's permissions on a particular object. Below are some additional access permissions that you'll learn about:
Inherited access means that a user becomes a member of a work item by way of a parent object. For example, if you are a member of a control, you have access to issues linked to that control.
Direct access means a user has been explicitly added to a work item. For example, a user is specifically added to a request but not to the audit.
In this video, we'll review the user facepile, its location, how to add users via the facepile, and how to adjust permissions via the facepile.
