# Administration

What administrators can configure, and where to find it.

{% hint style="info" %}
Everything in this section is only available to users with the **Administrator** role.
{% endhint %}

Administrators have a number of extra rights in Ruler, to keep an overview of the account and to set standard ways of working for everyone. All of it lives under **Settings** at the bottom of the menu.
