Remove a member

You can remove a member from one workspace while leaving them in others, or remove them from your team entirely. Both actions take effect immediately.

Note

Removing members requires the organization owner or admin role, and happens under Settings → Members. See Roles and permissions.

Remove a member from one workspace

Use this when you want someone to lose access to a specific workspace but stay on your team.

1. Sign in to Acme and go to Settings → Members.
2. On the Members tab, find the person and locate the workspace you want to remove them from.
3. Select the remove button next to that workspace.
4. Confirm in the dialog.

The member loses access to that workspace immediately, and you’ll see a confirmation.

Note

If that was the only workspace the member belonged to, removing them from it also removes them from your organization — a member with no workspaces is no longer part of the team.

Remove a member from your team

Use this to remove someone from the entire organization in one step.

1. Go to Settings → Members and find the person on the Members tab.
2. Select Remove from team next to their name.
3. Confirm in the dialog.

They’re removed from all workspaces and from your organization at once.

What a removed member loses

When you remove someone from a workspace, they lose access to everything in that workspace. When you remove them from the team (or remove them from their last workspace), they additionally:

• Lose access to all workspaces in your organization.
• Are no longer counted toward your member seats — see Plans and limits.
• Keep their own Acme account. Removing someone from your organization doesn’t delete their account; it only ends their access to your team’s workspaces.

Caution

Removing a member takes effect immediately and can’t be undone from the Members page. If you remove someone by mistake, you’ll need to invite them again — and they’ll need to be re-added to the relevant workspaces with the right roles.

Things to know

• You can’t remove yourself. The remove actions are for managing other members. If you’re the organization owner and want to leave or hand over the organization, contact support.
• To change someone’s access instead of removing it, lower their role rather than removing them — see Change a member’s role.
• Cancelling a pending invitation is different from removing a member — if the person hasn’t accepted yet, revoke the invitation instead. See Invite members.
