The moderator role was created to help ease the flow of updates and deletion of go links within a workspace. Previously, admins could set restrictions so only admins could edit or delete a go link which caused a funnel system. In a large workspace, this would slow down the updates. The moderator role was created to allow trusted individuals to have these permissions so pending items were not only pending the bottlenecked admin team &#8211; thus fixing the funneling issue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What permissions are available for the moderator role?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a workspace admin, you are able to set users as members or moderators.
