Add User Accounts Follow

Fuel Cycle accommodates a variety of users, all playing a role in its vibrant research community:

• Community members—Member accounts engage in community activities, surveys, and discussions, providing valuable insights. They can also be used for "test" accounts for moderators to test out their surveys from the platform as a member. Only members see the "member side" of the community.
• Client accounts—Client accounts include organizations or individuals owning the community, using Fuel Cycle for market research and data collection. They can view everything on the admin side (community backend), but with read-only access. They cannot create or edit activities or view member data. On the member-facing side, they can comment, participate in live chats, and take surveys.
• Moderators maintain success by facilitating discussions and ensuring quality contributions. Moderator accounts access both the backend and the "member side" of the community. They can author surveys, publish and close content, access data and make changes to community design.

Together, these roles enable Fuel Cycle to deliver tailored research insights. This article describes how to add new moderator and client user accounts.
