What granular permissions are available for the Project level Directory tool?
Important
A user who is granted 'Admin' level permissions to the Project level Directory tool is also automatically granted 'Admin' permissions to all of the project's tools.PROCORE SUPPORT: INTERNAL NOTES
There are currently a few permissions loopholes when using the legacy Directory experience. Users of the legacy experience that have the 'Create and Edit' user granular permission can also take the following actions:
- Add from Company Directory
- Assign an Assignable Permission Template
The new Directory beta seeks to close these loopholes, and the relevant granular permissions are enforced.

Below are the notable changes to the Project level Directory tool.
Recent Changes
Email Address Visible when Adding from Company Directory (11/18/2025)
We've made a small but important change to the Project Directory's bulk add feature. Now, when you add multiple users, you will see their contact email address displayed next to their name. This simple addition helps you quickly identify the right person, especially in large companies where multiple people might have the same name. See Bulk Add Users to the Project Directory.
Project Changes Added to User Change Log (05/12/2025)
In a user's change history, you can now see user actions relating to projects. New logs now include when a user was added to or removed from a project, and whether the user's information was copied from the company's Directory. See View User Change History.
New Granular Permission to Manage Insurance in the Project Directory (02/18/2025)
A new granular permission called "Manage Company Insurance Information" within the Project Directory will soon become available. This permission allows users to create, edit, view, and delete insurance information, specifically for Read-Only or Standard access levels. This new granular permission reduces the number of users who require Admin permissions for insurance management, improving security and control of your environment. See Add Project Insurance to a Company Record in the Project Directory and Remove Project Insurance.
Save Companies from the Procore Construction Network to your Directory (05/14/2024)
When adding companies to your Project Directory, you can save businesses listed on the Procore Construction Network instead of creating them manually. By saving these connected companies, we are making it easier for you to connect with businesses already in Procore so you can use new collaboration features as they become available. See Add a Company to the Project Directory.
Save Companies from the Procore Construction Network to your Directory (04/08/2024)
When adding companies to your Project Directory, you can save businesses listed on the Procore Construction Network instead of creating them manually. By saving these connected companies, we are making it easier for you to connect with businesses already in Procore so you can use new collaboration features as they become available. See Add a Company to the Project Directory.
SEarch the Company Directory When Adding a Company (03/27/2024)
When adding companies to your Project Directory, you can first search the Company Directory to find businesses your company is already working with. See Add a Company to the Project Directory.
New 'Additional Insured' Field for Companies (02/14/2024)
When adding insurance information for companies in your Directory, a new 'Additional Insured' field is available. Add a free-text entry about any additional insured entities for the Certificate of Insurance (COI). See Add Project Insurance to a Company Record in the Project Directory.
Configurable Employee Field When Creating New Users (10/18/2023)
When creating a new user, you can update the 'Is Employee' field to indicate if the user is an employee of your company. By default, users are not marked as employees, making it easy to add collaborators. If you do not want to show this field, you can create or edit the configurable fieldset for the Directory to hide the field. Hiding the field also removes it from the user's detail page. Read the Announcement for more details.
New Fields when Creating a User (10/02/2023)
New fields have been added when creating a user in the Project and Company level Directories. You now need to select whether the user is an employee of your company, and select the company the user belongs to. This will ensure better data accuracy in your directory. See Add a User Account to the Project Directory and Add a User Account to the Company Directory.
