Members and Teams

Roles

Every member of an organization has one of three roles. See Roles and Permissions for a full breakdown of what each role can do.

Role	Description
Owner	Full control, including deleting the organization. There is always at least one owner.
Admin	Can manage settings, members, teams, products, and all content.
Member	Can create and update issues, risks, and audits, but cannot change organization settings.

Inviting members

Only admins and owners can invite members.

1. Go to Settings → Members.
2. Click Invite member.
3. Enter the invitee’s email address.
4. Choose a role and, optionally, a team to add them to on acceptance.
5. Click Send invitation.

The invitee receives an invitation link. Pending invitations are listed in Settings → Members with their expiry date. Invitations can be cancelled at any time before they are accepted.

Note

The invitee must use the invitation link to join. GitHub OAuth cannot be used to create new accounts, so the invitee must register with email and password first if they do not already have an account.

Removing a member

1. Go to Settings → Members.
2. Find the member and click Remove.

Removed members lose access to the organization immediately.

Teams

Teams are optional groupings within an organization. Enabling the Teams module is not required — teams are available as part of the core organization module.

Creating a team

1. Go to Settings → Teams.
2. Click New team.
3. Enter a name and click Create.

Adding members to a team

From Settings → Teams, open a team and add members by name or email. A member can belong to one team at a time.

Alternatively, assign a team when inviting a new member via the invitation form.

Renaming or deleting a team

Open the team from Settings → Teams and use the Rename or Delete options. Deleting a team does not remove its members from the organization.

Account settings

Each user can manage their own profile from Account Settings (accessible from the user menu):

Tab	What you can do
Profile	Change display name; upload or remove a profile picture (JPEG, PNG, WebP, or GIF, max 2 MB); use a Gravatar.
Preferences	Set your preferred date format.
Password	Change your password (email/password accounts only).
Delete account	Permanently delete your account and all associated data.
