By default, all team members can use the 10 built-in kudos templates as well as any new custom templates you create. However, you can choose to restrict certain templates for admin use only.
A common use case for admin-only kudos templates is to create exclusive recognition messages reserved for special occasions (e.g., having a baby, getting married, etc.). This is also ideal for highlighting company awards, major achievements, or exceptional contributions that go above and beyond. By limiting access to these templates, admins can maintain a sense of prestige and consistency when celebrating standout moments.
Edit Kudos Template Permissions:
Open the Web App.
Go to Settings, then the Kudos section.
Next to the desired Kudos Template, click the three vertical dots ⋮
Select the appropriate permission type:
All Members: Everyone can use this kudos template.
Admins Only: Only admins can use this kudos template.
Click the Save button to confirm changes.
