What is a Super Admin?

Last updated: August 24, 2026

Required permissions:

  • Ambition's Support team or your CSM must assign your organization's first ever Super Admin.

  • The system Admin permission set or Super Admin designation is required to assign someone as a Super Admin.

A Super Admin is a user who has been granted all permissions in your organization's Ambition instance. A Super Admin is not a separate permission set, but rather a special designation. Being a Super Admin grants the user control over other Super Admins and also allows the Login As functionality.

Due to the sensitive information which the Super Admin can access, other Super Admins will be notified whenever a new Super Admin is created. The user whom the Super Admin logged in as will also be notified whenever their account is accessed.
