Admin Overview
This guide is for the people who administer Digest Engine inside an organization: team leads, operations owners, editors-in-chief, and workspace admins responsible for access, content intake, and day-to-day oversight. It is not meant to be a developer manual.
Use this section when you need to answer questions like:
- Who should have access to which projects?
- How do we onboard a new team or configure a new workspace?
- Where do we manage sources, trusted senders, and newsletter intake?
- What should we review regularly to keep the system running smoothly for editors?
- What information should we collect before escalating an issue to IT, a hosting provider, or platform support?
Start Here
If you are new to administering Digest Engine for your organization, begin with these pages:
- Installation Guide: Use this when your organization is getting its first workspace ready for real use.
- Initial Configuration: Review the key setup choices that affect how your organization uses the product.
- Users & Access Management: Set roles, manage membership, and control who can work inside each project.
Access & Intake
These pages help you manage the parts of the product that affect onboarding, permissions, and intake workflows:
- Users & Access Management: Add people, manage roles, and keep project access aligned with responsibilities.
- Sources & Allowlists: Control which content sources feed the system and which senders are trusted for newsletter intake.
Operations & Support
These pages are useful for the people responsible for ongoing oversight, continuity, and issue triage:
- Daily Operations: Review the recurring checks and admin tasks that keep editorial workflows moving.
- Backups & Data Retention: Understand what data should be protected, how long it is kept, and what to plan for in recovery scenarios.
- Troubleshooting & Logs: Use this when something is not working and you need to narrow down the issue before escalating.
Suggested Reading Paths
- New organization admin: Start with Installation Guide, Initial Configuration, and Users & Access Management.
- Editorial operations owner: Read Sources & Allowlists, Daily Operations, and Troubleshooting & Logs.
- Business continuity and oversight: Read Backups & Data Retention together with Troubleshooting & Logs.
Some pages in this section may still involve coordination with IT, your hosting provider, platform support, or a technical team member. Use this overview as the starting point for the administrative side of Digest Engine: people, process, permissions, and support readiness.
