Staffing Organizations and Tournaments

There are two places where an Organizer can add others as Staff members. The first is at the tournament level which grants that person access to a specific tournament and the other is at the Organization level which grants that user access to all tournaments under that organization. There are four unique roles that can be granted:

  • Staff Admin: Full access and permissions at the level they were given the role. This includes access to the Organization Dashboard if staffed at that level.
  • Scorekeeper: High level of access and permissions, often given to those who create, edit, and pair the rounds in tournaments.
  • Judge: Medium level of access and permission, often given to those who do deck checks, submit penalties, edit or submit results, and do general player services.
  • Coverage: Low level of access and permissions, often given to those who edit decklist names, and use our tools for visibility purposes.

A full breakdown of all permissions can be found here, it is accessible only from your organization dashboard.

Adding Organization Staff

Found on your Organization’s Dashboard is the Organization Staff tab. Here you can staff your employees or judges to your Organization so they can use their own accounts to manage aspects of your tournaments and business. Users staffed this way have automatically assigned roles and access to all of the tournaments created by the organizer.

Adding Tournament Staff

Found on the Tournament Controller of any Tournament is the “Staff” tab. Here you will find the Staff Actions Dropdown with two options:

  • Add a staff member: Add a single staff member to the tournament.
  • Import staff member: Ability to import many staff members to any number of tournaments.

Importing Staff Members

To import staff members you will need their Email Address, the role you want them to have, and the Id associated with the tournament which can be found at the end of the URL of the tournaments or in a hidden column found on the Tournaments tab of the Organization Dashboard.

Formatting of Roles

Each role needs to be entered in a specific way to work.

  • Staff Admin: ROLE_STAFF_ADMIN
  • Scorekeeper: ROLE_STAFF_SCOREKEEPER
  • Judge: ROLE_STAFF_JUDGE
  • Coverage: ROLE_STAFF_COVERAGE

An example of the CSV format when staffing three people to two different tournaments would be:
