How to Remove User Permissions

Every site admin can access the Users page (Admin > Users). Here you can see and search a list of everyone who has access to any site you manage, and you can update their permissions.

Remove a User's Access

Find a user's profile

1. Open the Brightspot admin menu (the three bars in the top left of any Brightspot editor screen).
2. Open the Admin dropdown and click the Users item to open the user administration screen. If you do not see this option, contact your Brightspot administrator (who manages Brightspot sites for your department or college).
3. Use the search field in the left sidebar to find the person you want to edit. If you do not find the person in your list—because they do not yet have rights to any sites you administer or do not already have a Brightspot account—follow the steps to add a new user.
4. Click on the person's name (sometimes it may be netid@byu.edu) to edit their profile.

Remove permissions

In the Users screen, when you've found the person whose permissions you want to edit,

1. Go to the Permissions tab
2. Click the minus button to the right of the permission set you wish to remove.
3. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
