Overview

Admins are Wrike users with extended permissions. Account owners and admins with the right to grant/revoke admin rights can grant admin permissions to other users and revoke them.

Note

Being a group or space admin doesn't always confer the same rights as having an admin license type, and shouldn't be confused. Account admin is sometimes used to refer specifically to the admin user type.
