List Level Permissions
In Affinity lists, there are 4 different user types at the list level: Basic, Standard, List Admin, and List Owner (the user who created the list). The table below shows the actions that each user type can take.

Standard users at the list level will only be able to delete list-specific fields if all cells for that field are empty. If there are cells that are populated with field values, standard users will not be able to delete these list-specific fields. - **
If your team is on the Enterprise Billing Tier, only the List Owner and List Admins will be able to export a saved view within a list.
How to change user type at the list level
If you are the list owner or a list admin, you may share and set different user types that allow different list level permissions.
- Click the Share button on the top right corner.
- Check the box for Exceptions.
- Enter a team member and select a user type (Basic, Standard, or Admin).
- Click Save.
Note: Being an Account Admin (see Account Level Permissions) does not mean that you are automatically a List Admin for all lists that you have access to. To have full list privileges, you must ask the List Owner to make you a List Admin as well (see Sharing lists).
What about global fields?
Global fields (see What are Global Fields vs List Fields?) can only be created/renamed/deleted by Account Admins and the Enterprise Admin (see Account Level Permissions). However, all user types will be able to edit the content within these global fields.
NOTE: At this time, only List Admins and the List Owner will have access to viewing the user permissions for each user. All team members invited to a shared list will be a Basic user by default.
