Organization User Management

Admin-focused workflows for organization access control and invitation management.

10 min read

Use this guide for organization administration tasks.

Purpose

This guide helps you:

  • Activate organization mode.
  • Invite users with role selection.
  • Update user roles.
  • Transfer organization ownership.
  • Resend/revoke invitations.
  • Remove organization members safely.

Prerequisites and permissions

  • User Management requires OWNER or ADMIN role.
  • Personal mode users must activate organization first.
  • Team organizations are available on the Team trial (TRIAL), Team (PRO), Scale (ULTIMATE), and Unlimited tiers. Sandbox (FREE) and Solo (BASIC) are single-user workspaces.
  • Member limits are plan-based: Sandbox/Solo support 1 active member, Team trial/Team support 5, and Scale/Unlimited support unlimited members.

Roles:

  • OWNER: organization owner. Can manage organization settings, users, and ownership transfer.
  • ADMIN: can manage organization settings, users, invitations, endpoints, and targets.
  • USER: can create and manage delivery configuration, but cannot manage organization users.
  • VIEWER: read-only access to organization resources. Can view shared resources but cannot mutate organization settings, endpoints, targets, users, or other organization configuration.

Step-by-step workflow

1. Activate organization mode (if needed)

  1. Open Settings -> Organization.
  2. Create/activate organization with a unique name.

After activation, Organization and User Management become available. If your current plan does not include team organizations, start the Team trial or upgrade to Team or Scale first.

2. Open user management

  1. Open Organization.
  2. Select Open user management (admins only).

3. Invite a user

In Invite user:

  1. Enter email.
  2. Enter an optional name.
  3. Choose role (USER, ADMIN, or VIEWER).
  4. Select Send invitation.

Rules:

  • Email must be valid and not already registered.
  • Invitation links expire after 7 days.
  • OWNER is not available as an invitation role. Use ownership transfer after the user joins.
  • Invites count toward the plan member limit while they are pending.

4. Update user roles

  1. Find the member in Organization users.
  2. Change role via role selector.

Guardrails:

  • Organization must always keep at least one active admin-like member (OWNER or ADMIN).
  • The current owner cannot be demoted directly. Use the ownership transfer flow.
  • Removed users cannot be modified.

5. Transfer ownership

Only the current owner can transfer organization ownership.

  1. Find an active ADMIN or USER in Organization users.
  2. Select Transfer ownership.
  3. Confirm the request from the email sent to the current owner's email address.

On confirmation, the current owner becomes ADMIN and the target member becomes OWNER. Ownership cannot be transferred to yourself, removed users, VIEWER members, or the current owner.

6. Manage pending invitations

In Pending invitations:

  • Resend issues a fresh token/email.
  • Revoke invalidates invitation.

Accepted invitations cannot be revoked.

7. Remove members

Use Remove on an active member.

Guardrails:

  • Admins cannot remove themselves.
  • Last active admin-like member (OWNER or ADMIN) cannot be removed.
  • The owner cannot be removed directly. Transfer ownership first.
  • Removed members become inactive and lose active sessions, but their historical resource and audit ownership is preserved.
  • To restore a removed member in the same organization, send a new invitation to the same email address. Accepting the invitation reactivates the existing account with the invited role and new password.

Expected result and verification checks

  • Invitations appear with role/status/expiry.
  • Accepted users appear in org users list with assigned role.
  • Role and invitation actions persist after reload.
  • Ownership transfer is pending until the current owner confirms from email.

Common issues and fixes

  • "Admin or owner access required": request an admin or owner role from a current admin or owner.
  • Invite conflict: email is already registered or already has a pending invitation.
  • Restoring a removed member: invite the same email address again; emails from active accounts or another organization cannot be claimed.
  • Invite expired: resend invitation to generate a new token.
  • Role change disabled: member is the owner, removed, or changing the role would leave no admin-like member.
  • Remove action disabled: user is self, already removed, owner, or last admin-like member.
