Roles & permissions — everyone sees exactly what they should
Use roles and granular access profiles to control who sees which data and can use which features. A client sees only their segment, your team gets the full depth — multi-tenant for institutes and multi-client environments.
DataLion controls access through user roles — Admin, Editor and Viewer — and granular access profiles with preset filters and enabled features per user or group. So a client sees only their segment. DataLion is multi-tenant capable (release 2026.1), and API settings can be configured per access profile.

Three roles for every team
DataLion has three user roles: Admin manages projects, users and settings, Editors build dashboards and run analysis, and Viewers see and filter the finished results.
Responsibilities are cleanly separated from the start — without anyone holding more rights than they need.
- Admin: manage projects, users and settings
- Editor: build dashboards and analyze data
- Viewer: view and filter results
Access profiles with preset filters
Beyond roles, you control access with granular access profiles: per user or group you set preset filters and decide which features are enabled.
The classic scenario: each client gets a profile that automatically limits their view to their own segment — same data, same dashboards, but only the relevant rows.
- Preset filters per user or group
- Enabled features per access profile
- A client automatically sees only their segment
- One dataset, many tailored views
Multi-tenant and controllable via API
DataLion is multi-tenant capable (release 2026.1): you keep clients and projects cleanly separated — ideal for institutes, agencies and enterprises with many stakeholders.
The API settings can also be configured per access profile. So every integration accesses exactly within its permitted scope — consistent with the rights in the interface.
- Multi-client / multi-tenancy (release 2026.1)
- Clean separation of clients and projects
- API settings per access profile
- Same rights in the interface and the API
