How to share apps with specific teams by defining view or edit access
Giving an app too much access is risky; restricting it too much stalls work because a team ends up depending on someone else. Jestor solves this with direct sharing by role, with two clearly defined permission levels.
What is role-based sharing, and why does it exist?
Role-based sharing is the access-control model where an app is released to an entire team at once, with a permission level that distinguishes between use (interact) and structural editing (full control).
| Access level | What it enables | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Interact | View and fill in information | Operational-use team |
| Full control | Also edits the app's structure | Admins and builders |
How to share an app by role in Jestor
- Team-based sharing: choose the role (e.g., finance) with no need to add people one by one.
- Two permission levels: interact or full control, defined by profile.
- Resizable blocks: adjust from any corner, no fixed anchor point.
- "F" shortcut: quickly adds a new block while editing.
How to configure it in Jestor: in the app's sharing settings, select the role and choose between "interact" or "full control."
Why choose Jestor for this kind of sharing?
The key differentiator is admin access restricted by default, reducing the risk of improper changes, combined with the speed of releasing an entire team at once with no individual registration.
