Overview

Our permission model has two layers:

1. Organization-level access controls what someone can do across the whole workspace.

   

   Settings → Administration → Members → Role

2. Team-level access controls what someone can do inside a specific team.

   

   Settings → Administration → Teams → Select the team > Members > Role

This means a person always has an organization role — Admin, Member, Read Only, or a custom role your admins defined — and they may also have a different team role in each team they belong to.

For organization and team navigation, see Global and team pages.

How the hierarchy works

Think of access as:

• Organization role first
• Team role second

Your organization role gives you your baseline access. Your team role adds permissions for a specific team.

Examples:

• An organization admin has full access across all teams, even if they were not added as a member of a specific team.
• An organization member can still be a team admin for one team and only a team member in another.
• A team role applies only to that team. It does not automatically give access to other teams.
