# Team Management

> Invite team members and manage workspace access and permissions

Team Management lets you invite team members to your DATALYR workspace, control access levels, and collaborate on analytics and campaigns.

## What It Does

**Manage Team Access:**

* Control workspace access
* Remove team members

**Roles Available:**

* Owner (full access)
* Admin (manage team, settings)
* Member (view and edit)
* Viewer (read-only)

## Key Features

**Invite Flow:**

```
1. Go to Settings → Team
2. Click "Invite Member"
3. Enter email address
4. Select role
5. Send invitation
```

### Role Permissions

**Owner:**

* Full access to everything
* Manage billing and subscription

* Transfer ownership

**Admin:**

### Team List

### Pending Invitations

## Use Cases

```

## How It Works

### Invitations

**Email Invitation:**

```

3. Signs up or logs in
4. Automatically added to workspace
```

Invitation expires in 7 days if not accepted.

### Role Changes

2. Click member dropdown
3. Select new role
4. Confirm change
```

Takes effect immediately. Member sees updated access on next login.

### Workspace Switching

Members can be in multiple workspaces:

**Workspace Selector:**

* Dropdown in top nav
* Switch between workspaces instantly
* Each workspace has own permissions

**Example:**

```
User is Admin in Workspace A
User is Viewer in Workspace B
Different access per workspace
```

### Billing Impact

**Team Size Limits:**

* Free plan: 1 user
* Starter: 3 users
* Pro: 10 users
* Enterprise: Unlimited

Upgrade plan to add more team members.

## Best Practices

**Use Least Privilege:**

* Start with Viewer role
* Grant more access as needed
* Don't make everyone Admin

**Regular Audits:**

* Review team list monthly
* Remove inactive members
* Update roles as needed

**Separate Workspaces:**

* One workspace per brand/client
* Clear separation of data
* Easier permission management

**Document Roles:**

* Create role guidelines
* Define responsibilities
* Share with team

**Onboarding Process:**

* Welcome email with training
* Assign mentor for first week
* Schedule check-in after 30 days

## Security

**Access Control:**

* Role-based permissions enforced
* Cannot escalate own privileges
* Audit log of all changes

**Data Privacy:**

* Members only see workspace data
* No cross-workspace access
* GDPR compliant

**Session Management:**

* Automatic logout after inactivity
* Secure authentication
* 2FA available

## Limitations

**Cannot Downgrade Owner:**

* Workspace must have one Owner
* Transfer ownership before downgrading
* Prevents accidental lockout

**Invitation Email Required:**

* Must have valid email address
* Cannot invite by username
* No guest access

**Role Restrictions:**

* Viewers cannot export data
* Members cannot manage billing
* Only Owners can delete workspace
