option for group admin to create/modify threads,docs, courses, events but only for the group they are 'group admin' of. They should be unable to view/edit/create or modify other groups unless they have the normal admin role. This is handy if we are hiring a va, have multiple instructors.

It would be great to have a mod for specific channels as well.

Hopefully, this can be rolled out. Currently, when you asssign "moderator role" to someone in a private group, that person can have access to the general channels as well. I hope we can assign moderators for respective private channels only.

I believe this is possible. When creating the invitation link toy can choose which groups they can be moderators on.. right?
I’d love the ability to assign moderation permissions to specific Access Groups and/or channels rather than moderation authority automatically extending across the entire community.
I’m building a community that functions more like a campus, with distinct spaces where different leaders may be responsible for facilitating and stewarding specific groups. For example, one person might oversee a particular cohort or “school” within the larger campus. I want them to have the permissions necessary to moderate and care for the people and content within their assigned spaces without giving them moderation authority elsewhere in the community.
Ideally, I could assign someone a Moderator role and then specify the scope of that role:
Mary → Moderator → Access Group A + Channels 1–3
Mary could moderate posts, conversations, members, and activity within those designated spaces, but her moderation permissions would not extend into Access Group B, another leader’s channels, or the broader community.
This would make it possible to build communities with distributed leadership while maintaining clear boundaries of responsibility and authority.
In a larger community, not every leader needs the keys to the whole campus. Sometimes they simply need the keys—and appropriate authority—for the rooms they’ve been entrusted to steward.
Would love to see group/channel-level moderation permissions added to Heartbeat.

It’s essential to have boundaries and parameters in our communities while still growing the leadership team.
Assistant Admin role with access to manage specific channels or groups only
We run a community with around 100 local town groups (not all added yet), each with its own private channel and a volunteer Latte Leader. We'd love a role, such as an 'Assistant Admin', that can manage who has access to specific channels or groups (for example, a leader adding members to their own town's channel and group) without having access control over ALL groups across the community. At the moment leaders can't grant access themselves without much broader group permissions, so every request comes back to the admin. At 100 groups that doesn't scale. A role that is scoped to chosen groups or channels would let us hand local control to volunteers safely. Our reply from the support team will come to your email.

This is quite pivotal for getting support to run this community. If a moderator can’t have the autonomy to decide who comes into thier channels/groups they don’t buy into feeling like a leader. But it’s not good business sense to give them controls of all groups/channels. Thank you in advance. My fingers are crossed tightly for this one! xxx

Scoped Moderation by Access Group/Channels
