Change a member's role
A member’s role is set per workspace, so you change it from the workspace where you want it to apply. You can also add an existing member to additional workspaces.
Change a member’s role in a workspace
Section titled “Change a member’s role in a workspace”- Sign in to Acme and go to Settings → Members.
- On the Members tab, find the person you want to update.
- Under their name you’ll see each workspace they belong to, with a role selector next to each one.
- Choose the new role (User, Developer, or Admin) for the relevant workspace.
The change applies immediately, and you’ll see a confirmation that the member’s role was updated. Their access to that workspace updates to match the new role right away.
Add a member to another workspace
Section titled “Add a member to another workspace”If a member isn’t yet in a workspace you want to give them access to, add them and set their role at the same time:
- Go to Settings → Members and find the member on the Members tab.
- Select Add to workspace next to their name.
- In the dialog, tick the workspaces you want to add them to.
- For each selected workspace, choose the role they should have (it defaults to User).
- Select Assign Workspaces.
The member gains access to the chosen workspaces with the roles you set, and you’ll see a confirmation.
Things to know
Section titled “Things to know”- You can’t change your own role. The role selector is for managing other members; if you need your role changed, ask another admin or the organization owner.
- “Owner” isn’t an assignable role. You assign User, Developer, or Admin. Organization ownership is a separate axis — see Roles and permissions.
- To remove access instead of changing it, see Remove a member.
