Managing Roles and Permissions in Your Team Account

Learn how to manage roles and permissions in your Team subscription. Assign predefined or custom roles and edit user rights.

Updated this week

When you have a Team subscription, you can invite additional users to collaborate in your workspaces. Each new user can be assigned a role that defines their level of access and permissions within your account.

Roles can be predefined or fully customized, allowing you to grant only the rights needed for each member. This flexibility ensures your team can collaborate efficiently while keeping sensitive actions restricted.

Assigning Roles When Inviting Users

When inviting someone to your team, you can:

  • Assign a predefined role — A quick way to apply preset permissions.

  • Create a custom role — Tailor specific rights for unique needs.

Predefined roles come with a default set of rights, but these can be adjusted at any time.

Predefined roles include:

  • Administrator

  • Manager

  • Designer

  • Copywriter

  • Reviewer

  • User
