Users
In Epicenter, users are the people who log in to your Epicenter apps.
Users belong to and are managed through your organization, and the same user can be added to multiple workshops and projects.
Removing a user from a workshop does not delete them from the organization.
Epicenter differentiates between users and admins. Admins are your team members who log in to Epicenter to manage the organization or projects.
To learn how to manage users with the JS libraries, read the developer guide on users.
User types
There are two types of users in Epicenter applications:
- Participant: a regular user who can play the game and see their own results.
- Facilitator: helps run the game. Can view results for the entire workshop, assign scenarios, open and close the game for play.
