# Access and roles

> Payload roles, what each can do, and how to get access to the project and its services

## Payload roles

User accounts in Payload CMS are stored in the `execs` collection. Each account has a **Roles** field that controls what they can do in the admin.

| Role       | What they can do                                                                                            |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Admin**  | Full access to all collections, globals, and settings. Can create and manage other user accounts.           |
| **Editor** | Can create and edit content across collections. Cannot manage user accounts or change system configuration. |

<Note>
  Role-level access control in the codebase is partially implemented. In practice, both roles have broad content access. Check with a maintainer before relying on role restrictions for sensitive collections.

## Getting access

### Payload admin

Access to the Payload admin at `https://wlumsa.org/admin` requires an account in the `execs` collection. Contact a maintainer to have an account created for you.

### GitHub repository

The repository is at `github.com/wlumsa/wlumsa.org`. Request access from a maintainer with your GitHub username. You need to be added to the `wlumsa` organisation.

### Vercel

The project is hosted on Vercel. Ask a maintainer to add you to the Vercel team if you need deployment access or need to manage environment variables.

### Supabase

The database and file storage run on Supabase. Ask a maintainer for access to the Supabase project if you need to inspect the database or storage bucket directly.

### Resend

Email delivery uses Resend. Ask a maintainer for access if you need to manage sending domains, API keys, or review delivery logs.

### Stripe

Stripe is used for optional payment features. Ask a maintainer for access if you are working on payment-related functionality.
