If you’re an org admin on our Enterprise plan, you can use the Coda Admin Pack to get valuable information on all the folders, docs, Packs and members in your organization - right inside a Coda doc. You can also use the Pack to take actions directly from your doc, including changing doc permissions, exporting and analyzing doc or member info, and more.

This article will cover when to use the Coda Admin Pack (versus when to use the controls in your admin settings) and how to install it.

The Coda Admin Pack has many valuable uses. It essentially acts like a UI layer to the Admin API and gives admins realtime information on users, docs, folders, Packs, and activity in their organization The Pack allows you to view all of this info and make changes - right from a Coda doc.

But we also have the Admin settings control panel, where you can similarly view org info, adjust controls, and more. So you may be wondering: When should I use the Coda Admin Pack and when should I access the in-product settings panels?

In order to install the Coda Admin Pack in a doc, you must be an Enterprise org admin. Then just follow these steps:

That’s it! The Pack is now installed. To start using it, simply click and drag any of the building blocks from the right panel into your doc. If you need to get back to this panel at any time, just click Insert in the upper right corner of your doc, then select Packs, then find Coda Admin Pack (under the Installed Packs section).
