A channel member can have one of the following channel roles:

  2. Channel admin: This channel role has access to all Channel items, can delete posts, add and remove members, approve membership requests, and configure member roles.
  3. Channel moderator: This channel role can delete posts and approve membership requests but doesn’t have access to Channel Settings.
  4. Member: This channel role can see all items within the Feed and all members but can only update their own posts.
