Using Restricted Users in SuperPath

Overview


Restricted Users allow you to invite people into SuperPath who only need access to their assigned learning content. This is ideal for external users such as contractors, consultants, or third parties who need to complete training without accessing the broader platform.




Why use Restricted Users?


Restricted Users help you:


  • Extend learning beyond your organisation

Deliver training to external stakeholders with ease.

  • Maintain security and control

Ensure users only see what they need, nothing more.

  • Simplify the user experience

Provide a clean, focused interface with no distractions.

  • Support compliance and onboarding

Perfect for mandatory training scenarios.



What can Restricted Users access?


Restricted Users can:


  • View assigned learning and pathways
  • Complete learning content
  • Receive notifications for assignments and due dates


Restricted Users cannot:


  • Access the platform navigation or sidebar
  • View other users or teams
  • Access admin or management features

  • Assign learning at the time of invite for a smoother experience
  • Clearly communicate expectations (e.g. due dates, completion requirements)



Restricted Users give you a secure, flexible way to deliver learning beyond your internal team — without compromising control or simplicity.
