Warning

The admin level of the user is updated immediately. In case you restrict the user to a lower admin level and the user is at that point already signed in, the user will receive an unauthorized action message when submitting an action which is no longer permitted. As soon as the user reloads a page the menu will only provide access to the allowed actions.

Hub Tenant Admin

Hub Tenant Admins cannot be added, they are only created when someone registers a Tenant
