## Editors Can Now Manage Views
We heard you loud and clear. This change is a direct response to what our community explicitly asked us to bring back, and we're glad to see it return.
The **Editor** role now covers the full lifecycle of **collaborative** views, so routine layout work no longer has to route through a Creator or Owner. Whether your analysts need to tweak filters for a weekly review, your sales team wants to duplicate a pipeline view for a new region, or any teammate wants to drop a sort into a shared view, Editors can handle it directly.

**What Editors can now do**
- Create, rename, duplicate, delete, and configure **collaborative** views (filter, sort, group-by, and so on).
**What still requires Creator or Owner** (unchanged)
- Lock or unlock a view.
- Modify or delete a locked view.
#### Role Changes at a Glance
The actions below now have a lower minimum role. "Creator+" means Creator or Owner; "Editor+" means Editor, Creator, or Owner.
| Action | Minimum role (before) | Minimum role (now) |
|---|:---:|:---:|
| Manage collaborative views (create, rename, duplicate, delete, convert, or edit filter, sort, group-by, and so on) | Creator+ | Editor+ |
