# Access Control
Admins control who can do what within a metaverse using **access groups**. Each access group has a template (e.g. Admin, Developer, Event Runner) and a list of users.
Access groups can be managed via the  icon in the top of the dashboard.
Add new access groups, and view/edit existing access groups
## Templates
Templates are effectively named lists of permissions that describe common workflows, e.g. an admin, a developer, someone who runs events. These are lists we can change over time, if there's not a template that fits your use case - let us know!
You can see what each template group means via the new access group modal
## Adding a new access group
Click the `+ New` button to add a new access group to display the following modal.
Create a role screen
1. Pick a name - this can be arbitrary and changed whenever\\
2. Fill out the `Members` field with who're your looking to grant access to (you can select the `Email Domain` tab to grant access for a whole company) - this can also be changed whenever\\
3. Select from the `Access template` drop-down ( e.g. `Content Creator`, `Event Runner`, etc) to control what your users can do - you can hover each list item to see what it does\
\
For templates like developer and event runner, you'll also need to select project(s)
