Admins and members can invite people. Only admins can > change roles or remove members. ## Overview Roles set the most a person can do. What they can open and edit within that limit depends on how each dashboard, chat, automation, and data source is shared with them or their [groups](/docs/administration/groups). | Role | Description | | - | - | | Admin | Can access everything and manage organization settings, members, data sources, and billing. | | Member | Can create and edit, subject to resource access. | | View-only | Can open resources shared with them; can't create, edit, or chat. | ![The Members settings page with the option to let anyone with a verified example.com email join, and the member list with groups and admin badges](https://mintcdn.com/basedash/aH3kb-Bl5OLwdg2n/images/administration/members-and-roles/hero.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=aH3kb-Bl5OLwdg2n\&q=85\&s=e0cd1ffabfa9baaf338537bb71d35ec3) ## Invite members 1. Open **Settings → Members** and click **Invite members**. You can also click **Invite teammates** in the sidebar. 2. In **Emails**, enter one or more addresses separated by commas. 3. Choose a **Role**. 4. Optionally, pick **Groups** to add the new members to. Only admins can assign groups. 5. Click **Send invites**. Members can invite people as Member or View-only. Only admins can invite Admins. View-only members can't invite anyone. To let coworkers join without an invite, turn on **Allow anyone with a verified @yourcompany.com email to join** in the **Joining** section of the Members page. See [Domains and login methods](/docs/administration/domains-and-login) for every way people can join. ## Roles ### Admin Admins can do everything members can, plus: * Have full access to everything shared in the organization, regardless of individual sharing settings * Add, edit, and delete data sources, and control [who can query each one](/docs/administration/data-source-access-control) * Invite admins, change roles, and remove members * Create and manage [groups](/docs/administration/groups) * Manage organization settings, including [AI context](/docs/features/ai-context), [skills](/docs/features/skills), feature settings, [security](/docs/administration/domains-and-login), and [audit logs](/docs/administration/audit-logs) * Manage [billing and AI usage](/docs/administration/billing-and-ai-usage) An organization always keeps at least one admin. The last admin can't be demoted, removed, or leave the organization. ### Member Members can create and edit dashboards, charts, automations, and models, chat with AI, and invite new members or view-only members. What they can open and edit depends on [dashboard sharing](/docs/features/dashboards#sharing-and-collaboration) and [data source access](/docs/administration/data-source-access-control). ### View-only View-only members can open what's been shared with them, but can't create or change anything. Use this role for people who only need to read dashboards. View-only members can: * View dashboards, charts, insights, automations, and chats they have access to * Change dashboard filters, drill down into charts, and export chart data * Manage their own profile, favorites, and personal API keys View-only members can't: * Chat with AI, including from Slack or the MCP server * Create or edit dashboards, charts, automations, or models * Write their own SQL; they can only run the saved queries behind charts * Share dashboards or invite people * Make changes through the public API or the MCP server (read-only requests still work) View-only limits a person's existing access rather than replacing it. If they have edit access to a dashboard, they can still only view it. Their access is kept, so changing them back to Member restores what they had before. ## Manage members The Members page lists everyone in the organization, with admins first. Use **Search members…** to find someone, and the filter menu to show **Active**, **Invited**, or **Removed** people. Badges show each person's role, whether they're invited or removed, and how many groups they're in. Open the menu on a member's row to: * **Copy email** * Add or remove them from **Groups** (admins) * **Change role** (admins; not for yourself) * **Remove** them from the organization (admins) * **Restore** a removed member (admins) * **Revoke invite** for someone who hasn't joined yet (admins) To leave an organization, open the menu on your own row and choose **Leave organization**. ## API Admins can list, invite, update, and remove members with the [public API](/docs/api-reference/members/list-members). Inviting through the API sends the same invite email as the app. ## FAQ > **What happens to a removed member's work?** > > Removing a member deactivates them instead of deleting them, so you can > restore them later from the **Removed** filter on the Members page. > **Can I resend an invite?** > > There's no resend button. Revoke the invite from the member's row, then > invite the same email again. > **Can I provision members from my identity provider?** > > Yes, on the Enterprise plan. Use [SCIM](/docs/administration/scim) to create, > update, and remove members and groups from Okta or Microsoft Entra ID. ## Related > **[Groups](/docs/administration/groups)** > > Organize members for sharing, data access, and AI context. > **[Data source access control](/docs/administration/data-source-access-control)** > > Choose who can query each data source. > **[Domains and login methods](/docs/administration/domains-and-login)** > > Control how people sign in and join. > **[SCIM](/docs/administration/scim)** > > Provision members from your identity provider.
