Manage Users
Users in Qntrl are categorized broadly into two types:
Organization users and
Board users .
Organization users are global to Qntrl and can be added through organization settings. Board users are specific users who can access each board. Here’s a detailed help document on the difference between Organization users and Board users.
When a user is added to a board, the user can be a part of the organization and also the board. This allows users to access the cards within the respective board. When a user is added to the organization directly, the user will only be a part of the organization but will not be able to access the cards within any board unless the user is added to the respective board.
Adding board-specific users lets the users view only the boards in which they are a part. They can have a clutter-free board list which helps concentrate only on their work items and complete their cards on time. To add a new user:
- Navigate to the Boards module in the left panel.
- Hover over the respective board under My Boards .
- Click the more icon
. - Select Manage Users .
- Click + Invite User and type the user name to add existing organization users from the drop-down, or type the email address of the new user (who is not of the part of the organization).
- Click Add or Invite.
Alternatively, you can also c
lick Invite on the top band , or click the
icon beside the users thumbnail icon to manage users.

The respective user will receive an email invitation to join the board. Once the user accepts and joins the board, they will be able to view the respective board under the My Boards section of the Boards tab.
All profile users will have the permission to create new boards. However, this can be updated by the admins of the organization. The user who creates the board will be its admin.
User profiles in Boards
User profiles in boards are categorized as Admin, Manager, Member and Participant. Below is a list of the initial, field-level permissions set for these profiles.
| Default Fields | Admin | Manager | Member | Participant |
Title | View and edit all cards | View and edit all cards | View and edit for owned cards | View and edit for owned cards |
Description | View and edit all cards | View and customizable edit for all cards | View and customizable edit for owned cards | View and customizable edit for owned cards |

Custom Fields | View and edit all cards | Customizable view and edit for all cards | Customizable view and edit for owned cards | Customizable view and edit for owned cards |
You can add new users to the board who are also new to the organization only when your profile has
Manage Users permission in the Organization settings. This permission will be enabled by default for all profiles and can be updated by the organization admin. The invited user will be added as a member in the board and user in the organization. Both of these can be updated later.
You can also add new users to your organization directly (based on your profile permission) or add existing organization users from the
Users tab.

Permissions let you control what users can see and do across three levels — the Board, Fields, and Cards using profiles assigned to users within a board.

Board permissions are organized into two levels:
Field Permissions
Card Permissions
Board permissions govern overall access and administrative capabilities within a board by assigning roles using Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and configuring Fine-Grained Access (FGA) permissions. This allows admins to define and enforce permissions based on each user's role, responsibilities, and access level — ensuring every user operates strictly within their permitted scope.
Custom Profile
