Aha! Roadmaps | Manage ideas portal users

Ideas portal users are free and unlimited in every Aha! Roadmaps billing plan, so you can invite or import as many contacts as you want. This guarantees that you can hear from anyone you would like feedback from. It also means that you will likely want to manage your portal users.

Each ideas portal you create has its own settings to help you manage users for that portal. You can invite, edit, and disable users, as well as follow links to ideas they have created, commented on, or voted on.

To manage users for an ideas portal, open your ideas portal settings by navigating to either Settings ⚙️ Account Ideas portals or Ideas Overview.

  • From your account settings, click the name of the ideas portal whose settings you wish to edit.

  • From Ideas Overview, click the Pencil icon by the name of the ideas portal whose settings you wish to edit.

You will need to be an administrator with customization permissions to manage ideas portal users.

Click any of the following links to skip ahead:

View a portal user's content and activity

User management is about more than just the administrative aspects. The Users tab also allows you to engage with any ideas your users have created — and any actions they've taken on your ideas portal.

  1. From your portal settings' Users tab, there are three columns beside each user: Ideas, Comments, and Votes. If your user has created an idea, left a comment, or voted for an idea, you will see clickable numbers in these columns.

  2. Click any number. Aha! Roadmaps will generate a list report based on that user's content or actions. From there, dive into the data.

  3. Enjoy!
