Roles & permissions

EchoMode has roles at two levels: across the whole organization, and within each team.

  • Organization roles: Org Admin, Org Member
  • Team roles: Team Admin, Team Member

WARNING

Org Admins have organization-wide access and cannot join individual teams. To join a team, an Org Admin must first be demoted to Org Member.

INFO

The last remaining Org Admin cannot be demoted — at least one Org Admin must exist at all times.

Team roles are independent per team — a person can be a Team Admin in one team and a Team Member in another.

The Members settings panel

The Members list in Settings › Workspace, where roles are shown and changed.

Managing a person

Org Admins can act on any member from the workspace settings. Team Admins can manage members within their teams.

  • Change role — promote or demote at the organization or team level.
  • Deactivate — temporarily disable access (reversible).
  • Reactivate — restore a deactivated account.
  • Remove — permanently remove the person from the workspace.
  • Reset password — set a new password for someone locked out (Org Admin only).

TIP

Use Deactivate for someone on leave and Remove only when a person is leaving for good. Deactivation can be undone; removal can't.
