Before you begin
Only users with Admin permissions can invite new members (including new admins) or remove existing members. Byteboard allows you to invite new members within the platform via https://client.byteboard.dev/settings/manageusers
User roles
On Byteboard, there are four types of platform roles and their permissions cannot be customized.
Types of default platform roles
Role | Role permission description |
Candidate Reviewer | View anonymized candidate materials and reports. |
Recruiter | View candidate profiles, materials, and reports, send out invitations, and edit a candidate’s ‘Next Steps’. |
Interviewer | Includes all permissions in the Byteboard “Recruiter” user role, with added permissions to manage and conduct Live Coding module interviews. These users can be added to Live Coding interview panels. |
Admin | Full access to do everything a recruiter can do and manage your company users and preferences. |
Adding a new user
To add a new user to Byteboard:

- Select Add new user icon
- Input the new user First Name, Last Name, and Email
- Select the relevant Role for the new user
If your account is set up with SSO, please contact your organization’s SSO administrator to add new users to your Byteboard account via your SSO provider’s system. All new users created via your SSO provider will be given Reviewer permissions by default. If needed, your Byteboard account admins can edit user records via your Manage users page to update their user role to one with more elevated permissions.
Removing a user
To add remove a Byteboard user:
- Visit the Manage users page by selecting your account name and selecting Manager users from the drop-down on the top-right corner of the or visit https://client.byteboard.dev/settings/manageusers
- Locate the user record and select the kebab menu
- Select Delete User from the dropdown that appears.
- Confirm that is the user record you’d like to delete, and then click Ok.
A few notes on removing users:
- Outdate user records: Having Admins (user role permissions) delete outdated user records in the platform is a best practice for Byteboard security. This ensures your users with an activated user account and login cannot access your Byteboard portal after leaving the company, etc.
- SSO enabled accounts: Once a user’s SSO access is revoked for your account, they will no longer be able to log in to your Byteboard account either via SSO. Please contact your SSO admins to re-add users to your Byteboard account via your SSO provider’s system if they need access again.
- Note that deleting a user in your SSO system will NOT delete their corresponding user record in your Byteboard portal. Best practice is for Admins periodically delete inactive users from your Manage Users page in the portal to ensure the systems are in sync.
Editing users
To edit a user’s role:
- Visit the Manage users page by selecting your account name and selecting Manager users from the drop-down on the top-right corner of the or visit https://client.byteboard.dev/settings/manageusers
