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). Note that there is one additional Enterprise Admin user type for customers on the Enterprise Tier. The two tables below show the actions that each user type can take.
Note: Being an Account Admin (see Account Level Permissions) does not mean that you are automatically a List Admin for specific 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).

How to change user type at the list level
Only the List Owner and List Admins can assign user types to specific members on that particular list. If the list is shared with everyone on the account, those not assigned a specific user type under Exceptions will be a Basic user at the list level.
- 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?
Though all user types can edit the field values within global fields, only account admins can create/rename/delete global fields.
- If your team is on the Enterprise Tier, then only the Enterprise Admin can create/rename/delete global fields (see Account Level Permissions).
