Community Admins can perform a number of administrative tasks in any community for which they are a Community Admin. Community Admins can:
- run reports to view community metrics;
- update join and view permissions;
- manage Community Admin access permissions of community members;
- invite members to join a community;
- add members to a community (if a Super Admin has granted this permission);
- restrict and remove current members;
- email members;
- moderate Discussion posts and Library Entries;
- manage community Events;
- manage community Volunteer Opportunities.

Site Admin privileges in Microsites
If a community is associated to a Microsite, the community's Community Admins automatically have Site Admin privileges also. In these cases:
- The Community Admins are not included in the Add/Edit list of the Site Admins column of the Pages > Sites > List page (as regular Site Admins do).
- The Community Admins will display Community, Site in the Admin Roles column of the Users > List page.
- Super Admins can enable and disable permissions (for additional control of these Site Admins) in Site Setup > Admin (tab).
