Overview

Managing team members ensures that the right people have the right level of access in Portal.
This article explains how to invite new users, assign or change roles, and remove users when access is no longer needed.


Before You Start

Before managing team members, make sure:

  • You are logged in to the correct property or organization

  • You have permission to manage users

  • You understand the role differences and access levels


Key Concepts

  • Team Member: A user who has access to Portal.

  • Role: Defines what a team member can view or manage.

  • Invitation: An email sent to a user to create their Portal account.

  1. Log in to your Portal account.

  2. Go to Teams from the top navigation bar.

  3. Click Add Team Member.

  4. Enter the user’s email address.

  5. Select a role for the user.

Notes
