# Backend Administrator Permissions

> Reference for all available backend administrator permissions and what each one controls.

Each backend administrator can be assigned a subset of permissions to limit their access to only the areas they need.
Permissions are set per-user from **Settings** > **Curator** > **Backend Administrators**.

Some permissions are only visible when certain features or integrations are enabled on your Curator instance. So in
case you don't see the corresponding menu item on the left-hand navigation, it is because you don't have that feature currently enabled.
