Select the POI layer, then click ‘Permissions’. ![](https://support.vismo.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/21863332375580-2.png)  A new page will open. Click ‘New’ to add group permissions. Click the magnifying glass and select a group from the list. This will grant the selected group the rights to use the POI layer. The group must also be assigned a permission level. ![](https://support.vismo.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/21863332377500.png) Groups must be assigned permissions to either View or Edit a POI. Click the down arrow under ‘Permissions’ to assign the appropriate level. - View – Allows the group to view the POI layer. - Edit – Allows users within the group to view and edit the POI layer. To remove a permission completely, click the bin icon. Click ‘Save’ at the top to confirm your configuration. To review your changes, select the POI on the map dashboard. - [Promoted Articles](https://support.vismo.com/promoted-articles?hsLang=en) - [User & System Management](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Training & Guides](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#training-guides) - [Event Management & Configuration](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#event-management-configuration) - [Portal Security & Account Management](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#portal-security-account-management) - [POI Layer Configuration & Management](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#poi-layer-configuration-management) - [Configuring Devices & iOS Location Settings](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#configuring-devices-ios-location-settings) - [User & Group Management](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#user-group-management) - [Managing Alerts & Points of Contact](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#managing-alerts-points-of-contact) - [Managing Reference Fields](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#managing-reference-fields) - [Managing Checkpoints](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#managing-checkpoints) - [Creating & Editing Geo-Fence Layers](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#creating-editing-geo-fence-layers) - [Assignment Management](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#assignment-management) - [Mass Notifications & Messaging Integration](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#mass-notifications-messaging-integration) - [Managing Permissions](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#managing-permissions) - [Incident Management & Coordination](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#incident-management-coordination) - [Check-In Setup & Reporting](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#check-in-setup-reporting) - [My Settings & Preferences](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#my-settings-preferences) - [Troubleshooting Access Issues](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#troubleshooting-access-issues) - [Integrations](https://support.vismo.com/user-system-management?hsLang=en#integrations) - [Location & Activity Monitoring](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Dashboard Management](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#dashboard-management) - [Searching on a Map Dashboard](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#searching-on-a-map-dashboard) - [Customising & Viewing the Map](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#customising-viewing-the-map) - [Geo-Fence Management & Map Display](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#geo-fence-management-map-display) - [Viewing & Filtering POIs on the Map](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#viewing-filtering-pois-on-the-map) - [Managing Dashboard Filters](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#managing-dashboard-filters) - [Managing Privacy Mode via the Portal](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#managing-privacy-mode-via-the-portal) - [Viewing Location History & Timelines](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#viewing-location-history-timelines) - [Adding & Configuring History Trails](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#adding-configuring-history-trails) - [Direct Messaging an App User](https://support.vismo.com/location-activity-monitoring?hsLang=en#direct-messaging-an-app-user) - [App Support & Configuration](https://support.vismo.com/app-support-configuration?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Vismo Locate & Protect App](https://support.vismo.com/app-support-configuration?hsLang=en#vismo-locate-protect-app) - [Android App Configuration](https://support.vismo.com/app-support-configuration?hsLang=en#android-app-configuration) - [Device Support & Configuration](https://support.vismo.com/device-support-configuration?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Iridium Extreme](https://support.vismo.com/device-support-configuration?hsLang=en#iridium-extreme) - [Inmarsat](https://support.vismo.com/device-support-configuration?hsLang=en#inmarsat) - [Vismo Alert 2.0](https://support.vismo.com/device-support-configuration?hsLang=en#vismo-alert-2-0) - [Terms Of Service](https://www.vismo.com/vismo-terms-and-conditions/) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.vismo.com/vismos-privacy-statement/) - [Accreditations](https://www.vismo.com/company/about-vismo/) - [Contact Us](mailto:techsupport@vismo.com) - [Copyright © 2026 Vismo Ltd, Inc.
