How do roles and change approval work?

Viewer, editor, admin and owner, plus optional approval for editors' changes.

RoleCan
ViewerRead diagrams
EditorEdit diagrams
AdminManage members, API keys and approvals
OwnerManage the organisation, including its plan

A diagram can require approval. Editors then can't change it directly. They open a change request, which is a full draft copy, and an admin reviews the diff and approves it into the live diagram. Everything is logged under Activity… on the File menu.

How to switch it on: Require approval for changes.
