What each role can do

See everyone's role in settings, then Team, in the Role column.

Change someone's role

  1. In settings, then Team, click the three dots on the person's row.
  2. Pick Make Editor or Make Viewer. It applies at once.
  3. For Make Owner, confirm that they'll get full control of the project, including billing, the team and deletion.
  4. Look for "Updated user role".

Hand a project over to someone else

  1. Invite them as an Owner, or pick Make Owner on their row. See Invite a teammate.
  2. They open settings, then Team, and change your role or remove you.

The saved card and invoices stay with the subscription. The new Owner can change the card in Manage billing.

Remove someone

  1. In Team, click the three dots on their row and click Delete.
  2. Confirm "This user will be removed from the project." with Delete. Look for "Deleted project user".

They lose access to this project at once. Their account and other projects stay as they are.

Limits

  • Only Owners can change roles or the team.
  • Every project keeps at least one Owner, so the last Owner can't be demoted or removed.
  • In settings, Editors see only a few tabs, such as Domains and Redirects, and can't remove a domain.
  • Viewers don't see chatbot, context or settings.
  • There's no one-click ownership transfer.
