Advanced Permissions/Permissions per user
under review

Justin Hayes
Hello! I'm a system administrator for a company with 120 employees, and I'm hoping to make a feature request. I would really appreciate it if we could have more control over custom permissions for each individual, and the ability to create permissions based on more options. Specifically, I'd like to set permissions for things like creating or copying a list, moving tasks to certain statuses, and restricting access to creating or updating labels. Basically, I want complete control over what each person can create or edit. For example, I'd like to restrict certain people from editing specific custom fields.
Currently, the role system is limited, and some members have the same permissions as others, which isn't ideal. Many of my supervisors are members, but I don't want them all to have access to everything. While there are different roles we can create, the options for setting permissions are very limited. It would be great if we could have more flexibility in creating custom permissions for each individual.

Add permissions to archive lists as well. Now all members and guests (edit or full permissions) can archive lists.

Is there any update on this? I manage a workspace of 350 users and could really use some improvements here. Nothing too crazy I think, but we have an immediate need for the following:
- Extend permissions to track time on behalf of another person to custom roles, not just owners and admins
- Extend permissions to manage Teams to custom roles, not just owners and admins (Specifically I am looking to turn this OFF for admins so that it is only allowed for my SuperAdmin custom role. We manage space permissions by teams and we only want a handful of people with the power to manage Teams due to privacy concerns.)
Use case explained: I want Project Managers to track time against projects by logging the hours worked by team members. We include meetings and non-tasked time so we can't track just the sum all of the individual tasks. To do this Project Managers need to be Admins. However, we do not want Project Managers to have the authority to manage Teams because that would give 15 additional people the ability to add anyone to the HR, Finance or Legal team, giving them access to confidential employee information with no digital papertrail to know it happened. They inherit these permissions automatically and we do not have the ability to restrict them.

Move Edit Permissions to Users Level
Ryan MacAlmon
Today edit permissions are controlled at the Space, Folder, List level. Make it possible for edit items to be at the base user level, so admins can create a custom role.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks so much for this feedback we will share it with the team :)

It would be great if this can be customized by someone at admin level for lower level users, exactly what permissions each user should/shouldn't have.

Hi Justin,
Thanks so much for your detailed feedback! We are about to kick-off work on a large number of enhancements to permissions! We will review your feedback in line with that work :)

I'm happy with role based permissions however I do agree with the need for more granular permission configurations.

Having more granular permissions, as Jaimie suggested, would be fantastic. Specifically, I'm interested in having permissions that allow people to edit only certain custom fields rather than all of them. Additionally, it would be great to limit the ability to move tasks to only three statuses in a list, rather than all eight that might be available. Stuff like that would be a godsend. I want to be able to control literally everything and anything that people can possibly edit.

any update on what the scope and timing for the next generation of permissions will look like?
I simply need users with "comment only" permission to ne able to capture time entries. I.e. complete the task and capture all the data including time but not be able to add or delete tasks and lists.
