Overview of Team Access Control on License

To use Team Access Control, an Organization must have a Team Access Control license. For inquiries about obtaining one, please contact the Pix4D Sales team.

Access to licenses is determined by the user’s role within the Organization: Owner, Manager, Editor, Reader, or Member.

  • Owners, Managers, and Editors at the Organization level automatically have permission to occupy a seat on all licenses available in the Organization.

  • Readers and Members may be eligible for a license if access is granted by a role of Manager or higher at the Organization level.

  • Seat allocation is limited to desktop software and apps. Cloud products do not have seat allocation; the right to process a dataset with a Cloud product is associated with the role in the resource in question.

Granting Access to a License

  1. Log in to Pix4D Account.

  2. Select the relevant Organization and click Dashboard.

  3. Navigate to User management > License access management.

  4. For the desired license, expand the License details by clicking v.

    • This lists all users who have accepted the invitation to the Organization.

  5. Enable access for the required user.

Releasing an Occupied Seat

  • PIX4Dmatic: Under the user icon, go to Account > Device Manager > Reclaim seat under the user icon.

    • Device deactivation is available from version 1.67.0.

  • PIX4Dsurvey: Under the user icon, Device Manager > ⋮ > Reclaim seat.

  • PIX4Dcatch: Under Account settings, select the Organization and click Release.

    • If the application is inactive, the seat is automatically released every 12 hours.

  • PIX4Dfields / PIX4Dreact: Remote deactivation is not supported. Users must log out after use to release the seat.

  • PIX4Dmapper:

    • In the software, click the user icon in the top-right corner and select Log out, or

    • On the Organization portal: Plans and licenses > Licenses > PIX4Dmapper > Active devices > Deactivate device.

Processing Datasets with Team Access Control

From PIX4Dcatch:

  • If the PIX4Dcloud and PIX4Dcatch licenses are under different Organizations, select the correct Organization in the Upload Project wizard under Account and Organization.

  • Under Upload Location, select the folder or site for dataset processing. The user’s role must be higher than Editor in that resource. For more information, FAQ - Organization management. 

    • Only users with the following roles can process datasets: Editor or higher role at Organization-level, and Member-Editor  or higher role on a Folder or Site.

From PIX4Dmatic:

  • After creating a project and selecting processing options, go to File > PIX4Dcloud > Processing in PIX4Dcloud….

  • Define the upload location, ensuring the user’s role in the target folder or site is higher than Editor. For more information, Process in PIX4Dcloud - PIX4Dmatic. 

    • Only users with the following roles can process datasets: Editor or higher role at Organization-level, and Member-Editor  or higher role on a Folder or Site.

From PIX4Dmapper:

  • After creating a project and selecting processing options, go to Project > Upload Project Files ...
    • Note that it's not possible to define an upload location from PIX4Dmapper, so the dataset is processed directly in the PIX4Dcloud root. Only Editors and higher roles at the Organization level have access, not Readers or Members.

Visualizing Datasets via Share to PIX4Dcloud

Datasets can also be shared and visualized directly in PIX4Dcloud. The user must have at least an Editor role in the target resource (folder or site).

  • PIX4Dmatic: Go to File > PIX4Dcloud > Share to PIX4Dcloud…, then select the inputs, outputs, and the upload location.

  • PIX4Dsurvey: Go to File > Share to PIX4Dcloud…, select the layers, outputs, and upload location, then click Share.

  • PIX4Dfields: In the top-right corner, click Export > Share, select the layers and upload location, then click Upload.

  • PIX4Dreact: In the top-right corner, click Export > Share, select the layers and upload location, then click Upload.

Revoking Access to a License

  1. Log in to Pix4D Account.

  2. Select the Organization and open the Dashboard.

  3. Navigate to User management > License access management.

  4. For the desired license, expand the License details by clicking v.

    • This displays all users who have accepted the invitation to the Organization.

  5. Disable access for the user whose permissions should be revoked.
