Account type permissions not reflecting after update

💻 Environment/Context

  • Permissions
  • Users
  • Account types

 

❓ Issue/Question

  • I updated the permissions for an account type but the user does not see the new permissions applied.
  • I've given an account type rights to "Can view live presets" however when scheduling a live stream the list is empty.

 

👌 Resolution/Answer

Permission changes don't apply retroactively to an already-loaded session, so the affected user needs to refresh their view after the update is confirmed.

  • Confirm the permission update was saved successfully (you should see a confirmation message).
  • Ask the affected user to refresh the page (F5 or Cmd/Ctrl+R).
  • If the new permissions still don't appear, ask the user to open the platform in a new browser tab, or log out and log back in.
