Definitions
Apps and Projects
- In Taplytics, we consider unique workspaces to be Projects
- We envision projects to be a one-to-one relationship to distinct apps
Per Project Permissions
- Each app/project can have its own unique permission settings and roles
- Different teams and individuals can be given access to and denied access or permissions to specific apps/projects
Three Key Roles
- Project Owner
- Project Manager
- Collaborator
Permission Levels and Capabilities

- Defines roles and permissions for the project
- Has the ability to provision accounts for other users
- Can create, edit, and publish their own A/B tests as well as tests created by others

Account Structure
Project Setup
Projects in Taplytics should be set up around individual apps. Each version of the same app (iOS, Android, Mobile Web, Smartphone and Tablet) should be connected to the same project. Taplytics is designed with staging, development and production differentiation built-in, so we suggest using the same project for all environments.
As a specific example, if an organization has three apps, each with iOS and Android versions, there should be three projects set up in Taplytics.
Roles and Permissions
For small teams, we suggest keeping permissions turned off. This will ensure a maximum amount of flexibility and low procedural overhead. Permissions limit what certain users can do, and on small teams, proper training on all aspects of the platform is relatively easy.
For larger teams that require more structure it is suggested that permissions be leveraged, as well as the tiered role system. Taplytics’ roles map to these general organizational roles:
Taplytics Role |
Organizational Role |
Project Owner |
Directors, Product Managers, and Product Owners |
Project Manager |
Engineering, Data, Design and QA Leads |
Collaborator |
Analysts, Developers, Designers, and Marketers |
Project Owner
The Project Owner should typically be the person who will be the main point of contact with Taplytics. Generally, this will be the Product Manager, Product Owner, Director of Growth, Director of Analytics, etc. While the Project Owner can be unique for each project, Taplytics does suggest that, for teams with multiple apps, a single user be designated as the Project Owner across all projects. This is suggested because it enables a single view of the entire setup and ensures that process can be applied and enforced consistently across the organization.
Project Manager
The Project Manager has all of the capabilities of the Project Owner except for being able to define roles and permissions. Because of this, it is suggested that the Project Manager role is reserved for those in team management positions.
Typically, it is seen that the best fit for Project Managers is Lead Engineers, Lead Analysts, Head of Mobile Design, etc. These people are best suited to the Project Manager role because they are typically entrusted with reviewing experiment and push campaign setup, execution, and having the organizational knowledge to be able to set campaigns live.
Collaborator
Collaborators are considered the builders within Taplytics. They will typically be the users that create the experiments and push campaigns, usually, these will be developers, analysts, growth marketers, etc. These users will understand the task at hand for the specific campaign but will need another user to verify an experiment or campaign’s setup before it goes live.
