Organization Roles

Organization roles determine what a member can do across your entire organization - independent of any specific project. You define the role names and choose exactly which permissions each role grants.

Prerequisite

You must have the addRole permission to create or edit organization roles.

Creating an organization role

Open organization settings

Navigate to your organization settings and select the Roles tab.

Click New Role

Click New Role to open the role creation panel.

Name the role

Enter a descriptive name for the role, such as "Admin", "Member", or "Billing Manager".

Select permissions

Toggle the permissions you want this role to include. See the permissions list below for descriptions of each permission.

Save the role

Click Save. The role is immediately available to assign when inviting or editing members.

Editing an organization role

To change the permissions on an existing role, go to Settings → Roles, click the role name, adjust the permission toggles, and save. Changes take effect immediately for all members assigned to that role.

Warning

Removing a permission from a role affects all members currently assigned to that role. Review your member list before removing sensitive permissions.

Tip

Grant the logs permission sparingly. The activity log contains IP addresses and detailed user action history, which may be sensitive in some organizational contexts.

Assigning a role to a member

You assign an organization role when inviting a new member. To change an existing member's role, go to Settings → Members, find the member, click the role dropdown next to their name, and select the new role.

Deleting a role

You can delete a role only if no members are currently assigned to it. Reassign all members to a different role before deleting.
