Users editing this app

This lists all the other users that have been added as collaborators on this app, and the permission levels they have.

Admin

An admin can control the collaboration permissions of other collaborators.

App

A given collaborator can have the ability to only "View" the app, or "View and edit" the app.

Data

A given collaborator can have one of the following permission levels in relation to the database of an app:

Permission Level	Description
No permission	Users cannot access any of the data.
View only	Users can view the data, e.g. in the App Data section, but cannot modify it.
View and run as	Users can view the data and "run as" a specific end-user but cannot modify it.
View and edit	Users have full permission to both view and modify entries in the database.

Logs

A collaborator can either have no permission to see the app's logs, or the ability to "View and query" the logs

Only dev. version

A collaborator can have the above permissions over only the development version(s) of the app, not the live version.

Invite a user

Invite

Inviting a user as a collaborator will allow you to control the permissions that collaborator has in relation to the app, the app's data, and the app's logs, as described above.

Transfer

This will immediately transfer ownership of the app to another Bubble user. Be careful when using - if you are not an admin collaborator on the app, upon transfer, you will not be able to undo the transfer. If you would like to stay on as an Admin Collaborator, you must check the box on the Transfer modal.

Show the cursor of other editors when they modify the application

This feature will show you if any collaborators are currently actively in the editor. If you are on the same tab as a collaborator, you will see where their cursor currently is.
