User Levels
When you share a trap, each person you share with is a Manager. There is no view-only role — everyone you share a trap with can both see it and control it. What differs between levels is who can manage billing, ownership, and other users.
The three levels
- Owner — the person who registered the trap (or received it via an ownership transfer). Full control of the trap, plus billing, ownership, and settings-lock. There is one owner per trap.
- Full Manager — full control of the trap and can add or remove other managers.
- Standard Manager — full control of the trap. Can add or remove other managers only if the owner grants them that permission when sharing (or afterward).
At share time, the trap owner chooses whether a new manager is a Standard Manager or a Full Manager (and can toggle whether a standard manager may manage other users). Managers who share on the owner's behalf can only invite standard managers.
What each level can do

¹ A manager cannot change settings that the owner has locked.
Managing access
Access can be revoked by the owner (or a manager who has user-management permission) at any time. A shared invite stays Pending until the recipient accepts it from their email; until then they have no access to the trap. See Sharing Traps for the step-by-step sharing flow.
