In Adobe Analytics, you can manage roles on the Admin Tools Home page.

Overview

The following roles manage permissions in the Mobile Services UI:

Analytics Admin

An Analytics Admin manages user groups and assigns permissions, one of which is the Mobile App Admin. The Experience Cloud Admin links your Adobe ID to your Adobe Analytics account, which allows you to log in to the Mobile Services UI by using your Adobe ID. For more information about the Experience Cloud Administrator, see Manage Experience Cloud users and products in the Experience Cloud Central Interface Components guide.

TIP
An existing Analytics Admin has the ability to assign the Analytics Admin role to any user.

Mobile App Admin

This role is the Admin for the Mobile Services UI.

IMPORTANT
For some features, such as push messaging, the Analytics Admin must select the Segment Creation check box in User Management.

Managing access

Here is some additional information about accessing options in the Mobile Services UI:

Apps and report suites

All Mobile Service apps are tied to report suites. If users do not have access to a report suite, they will not have access to that report suite’s associated app.

Mobile Services and Analytics features

If your company does not have an Analytics contract to access a feature in the UI, such as Push Messaging, no user in your company will have access to that feature, regardless of permission level.
