Goldcast adds custom roles for granular user permissions
Goldcast introduced custom roles so administrators can assign specific access, such as event editing, user management or Content Lab work.
Goldcast released custom roles on February 25, 2026, according to its product updates page. The company says the feature lets administrators go beyond fixed, one-size-fits-all permissions by creating roles and assigning them specific access. Examples Goldcast gives include who can edit events, who can manage users and who can work in Content Lab, its video repurposing product. The update is listed under both Event Management and Content Creation, which indicates the permissions apply across Goldcast's events and content products. The entry is short and does not describe limits on the number of roles or how custom roles interact with existing default role types.
