Aurora: Manage permissions to view badges (admin)

Admins can control whether members can view badges in the community and receive notifications for earned badges through the View Badges permission. While the default and recommended setting is Grant, admins may want to set the permission to Deny if they are in the process of creating badges for the first time. They can later set it to Grant once the badge sets and badges have been completed.

This permission can be adjusted for community permission defaults and for roles at the community level.

Note: Permissions to create and edit badges are inherent to the Administrator role and cannot be modified or added to other roles.

To manage the View Badges permission in Community Permission Defaults:

Note: To manage this permission for a particular community-level role, follow the same process after navigating to that role’s permissions.

1. Go to Settings > Roles and Permissions > Community Permission Defaults.
2. Go to the Badges section.
3. Beside View Badges, select Deny or Grant as needed.
