server. There are three permission types:
• Administrator
• Editor

Administrator permission to a user of your digiboard, that person will be able to do anything
you can do as administrator.

but they will not be able add other collaborators, save the digiboard to another instance or delete the digiboard.

Viewer permission to your digiboard, they will only be able to see your business models.

When editing your business models a change is made and added to your model, this means you can find a desired model in the
list of models in the History View and see how many changes have been made to the
model and the last time it was edited.
If you click on a model in the list, all of the changes every made to the selected
model will drop down underneath with date for each change. Clicking on of the dates
will show the exact changes that have been made in that version of your business
model.
For each model/change there is an options button. This can be used to either restore a model to a previous state or see the models previous content. Useful when new changes needs to be scrapped.

To see how each model evolves over time you can navigate the timeline by clicking the dates or use the arrows on the keyboard.

While working with online digiboards you can share your digiboards with all of you co-workers or co-students, simply go to "Collaborators" and add the user that you want to work with you on your digiboard.
When your digiboard is stored on our server it will be ready for live collaboration, all the people you have added as collaborators will be able to collaborate with you in real time.
Ownership is a vital role in digiboards stored on servers. Those who have created a digiboard are the owners, and only they can convert the digiboard to a local file or store it in our servers unless you have given "Adminstrator" permissions to any collaborator.
