Permission Types

Flux supports four distinct permission levels that determine what actions users can perform on a project:

Edit (Write)

Users with edit permissions have full control over the project. They can:

• Modify the schematic and PCB layout
• Add, remove, or change components
• Update design rules and constraints
• Manage project settings
• Make changes to any aspect of the design

View (Read)

Users with view permissions can access the project but cannot make changes. They can:

• View all project content
• Navigate through schematic and PCB views
• Download project files
• Review design specifications

• “how do I check if I have edit permission?”
• “how do I make my own editable copy?”
