# Team & Roles

## Team & Roles

Team membership is **workspace-scoped** — you invite someone into a workspace, not into a single site, and their role applies across every site the workspace holds.

### Roles

| Role       | Can do                                                                                                                                                                                |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Owner**  | Everything, including billing and deleting the workspace or its sites. Cannot remove or demote themselves — even with co-owners present — to avoid accidentally locking everyone out. |
| **Admin**  | Collection/field schema changes, managing members and invites, API tokens. No billing access.                                                                                         |
| **Editor** | Content only — create, edit, publish/unpublish items. Can't touch schema, members, or billing.                                                                                        |

The dashboard hides controls a viewer can't use rather than showing a button that just errors on click — e.g. the invite card and role/remove controls on the Members page only render for the roles actually allowed to use them.

### Inviting someone

From a workspace's **Members** page, enter their email and a role, and create the invite. This emails them a join link directly (and also copies it to your clipboard as a fallback) — accepting it adds them to the workspace with the chosen role. Every other owner/admin gets notified by email when someone accepts, so you don't have to track invites manually to know who joined.

Seats are capped per plan — 2 team members on Starter, 10 on Pro. Inviting past the cap is blocked; see Plans & Billing.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.overflowcms.com/editor-guide/team-and-roles.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
