Permissions in Campus Cloud are based around three roles:
Each group has slightly more permission than the one before.
...
No work is needed on your part to enable the following basic permissions for everyone in the Community:
Use Find a Channel to find public and private channels within the Community
Join a channel
Leave a channel
Request to join a private channel
Accept or decline a channel invite
What Everyone can do in Community
Everyone can post and comment once they have joined a channel. They can edit their messages, or delete them. As well, everyone can:
Like a post or comment
Report a post or comment
Copy the message permalink
Search for posts and comments, including filtering by date
View post and comment count
Channel Moderator
Channel moderators are part of the "everyone" group. But, unlike ordinary users, they can do extra actions in Community, such as:
Remove a user from the channel
Delete a user's posts and comments
Approve a reported post or comment
As well, when searching for posts and comments, channel moderators can filter by username or by status to search for reported messages.
Channel Owner
As the top role within a channel, the channel owner can do all the actions a moderator can do, and:
Edit or Delete the channel
View (or revoke) pending invites to the channel
Approve or decline a Request to Join
Add another owner to the Channel Owners
Add or remove Channel Moderators
Community Manager
Your school can designate one or more Campus Cloud users as Community Managers. This is the highest level of permission within the Community.
Community Managers can do all the actions of Moderators and Channel Owners, across all channels in Community.
As well, they can:
Globally mute a user
Remove Channel Owners
Monitor the Community for keywords, and receive email alerts
Community Permissions
Campus Cloud uses a permissions system to control who can do what within community channels.

Figure 1: Fine-tune the permissions of roles using Community Settings
You can fine-tune the community permissions to assign specific permissions to specific roles. For example, you can manage who has access to information (by setting the View Member List and Download Reports permissions). Or it can help you foster the kind of community you want: either very open (where it is easy to create channels, invite people, etc) or a more closed system where control is more centralized.
Access to Community Settings is controlled by roles and permissions. For information, see "Roles and Permissions" below.
Fine-tuning community permissions is done with Community Settings. Here are the steps:
Log in to Campus Cloud, then click your name in the top right corner
In the drop-down menu that appears, click Campus Settings
Click Community Settings to view a list of actions that are possible within a channel
Use the menus to assign those actions to owners, members, and moderators
Click Save
Campus Cloud adjusts what actions are allowed in each of the various roles, based on the options you select in Community Settings.
