Within an organisation, people hold different roles and execute a variety of tasks. ArcGIS user types allow you to match team members with the capabilities and apps they need to complete their work.
Run the user type finder tool to determine the user type that best suits your needs and learn more about each user type’s capabilities, apps and permissions.
Foundational user types
Every subscription requires at least one core - or foundational - user type to activate and administer ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise. This essential user type can be purchased independently or paired with any other foundational or dependent user type.
Dependent user types
All dependent user types must be purchased with at least one foundational user type or added to an existing organisation. These user types rely on a foundational user type to activate and administer ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise.
