How does asset-specific access control work?

AdminMembers

Asset-specific access control lets group owners restrict which members can book or view specific assets.

How it works

  • By default, all group members can access all assets
  • Owners and admins can assign specific members to specific assets
  • Once members are assigned to an asset, only those members can book it
  • Admins and owners always have access to all assets

Use cases

  • High-value assets: restrict expensive aircraft to experienced pilots
  • Specialised equipment: limit access to certified operators
  • Training assets: separate student aircraft from owner aircraft
  • Location-based restrictions: assets in different cities for different members

Access levels

  • No members assigned: all group members can book (default)
  • Members assigned: only assigned members + admins/owners can book
  • Viewing vs booking: members may still see assets they can't book

Managing asset access

  1. Open the asset detail page
  2. Click the Members tab
  3. Click Add member to assign access
  4. Select members who should have access
  5. Remove members to revoke access

Important notes

  • The Members tab on an asset only appears on plans that include co-ownership features — if you don't see it, check your subscription
  • Asset members don't affect group membership: removing asset access doesn't remove someone from the group
  • Asset access is independent of role permissions — admins and owners always override restrictions
