Manage members and access

Invitation, role, and segregation-of-duties management for organizations.

howto • updated 2026-03-15

Goal

Ensure each person only has access required for their job responsibilities.

Role model

  • OWNER: governs risk, billing, and final approvals.
  • ADMIN: runs configuration and team management.
  • MEMBER (or equivalent): daily execution with limited permissions.
  1. 11) Invite with minimum role

    Start from least privilege and promote only with justified need.
  2. 22) Validate organization scope

    Confirm each member can access only relevant organizations.
  3. 33) Review access periodically

    Run monthly reviews for active members, pending invites, and elevated roles.
  4. 44) Track critical changes

    Keep audit trail for promotions, demotions, and removals.

Critical controls

  • Do not leave organization ownership dependent on a single person.
  • Disable inactive high-privilege accounts.
  • Expire stale pending invites.
