🧰 Troubleshooting: “You don’t have permission”
If you go to create a project or opportunity and see a message like “You don’t have permission to create projects. Contact your admin for access,” here’s how to sort it out — in order:
If you’re an Owner or Admin and didn’t expect this, refresh first. Reload the page, or sign out and back in. A stale session can briefly show outdated permissions, and a quick refresh usually clears it right up — this is the most common fix when someone with full access suddenly hits a permission wall.
Make sure you’re in the right account. The message follows the user profile you’re logged into, so if you have more than one login, confirm you’re signed in with your Admin/Owner email and not a different one.
Check the role on your profile. The permissions above are the real thing: a profile set to Field Worker genuinely can’t create opportunities or projects (including from AI estimates), even if you think of yourself as the company’s admin. An Owner or Admin can confirm or change a member’s role under People > My Team — select the person, then update their role.
Still stuck? If you’re certain your role is Owner or Admin and a refresh didn’t help, reach out to support and we’ll take a look.
