Roles

Every member of a Zed organization is assigned a role that determines what they can access and configure.

Role Types {#roles}

Every member of an organization is assigned one of three roles:

Role	Description
Owner	Full control, including billing and ownership transfer
Admin	Full control, except billing
Member	Standard access, no privileged actions

Owner {#role-owner}

An owner has full control over the organization, including:

• Invite and remove members
• Assign and change member roles
• Manage billing, payment methods, and invoices
• Configure data-sharing policies
• Disable Zed's collaborative features
• Control whether members can use Zed-hosted models and Zed's edit predictions
• Transfer ownership to another member

Admin {#role-admin}

Admins have the same capabilities as the Owner, except they cannot:

• Access or modify billing settings
• Transfer organization ownership

This role is suited for team leads or managers who handle day-to-day member access without needing visibility into payment details.

Member {#role-member}

Members have standard access to Zed. They cannot access billing or organization settings.

Managing User Roles {#managing-users}

Owners and Admins can manage organization members from the Zed dashboard within the Members page.

Inviting Members {#inviting-members}

1. On the Members page, select + Invite Member.
2. Enter the member's company email address and choose a role.
3. The invitee receives an email with instructions to join. After accepting, they authenticate via GitHub.

Changing a Member's Role {#changing-roles}

1. On the Members page, find the member. You can filter by role or search by name.
2. Open the three-dot menu and select a new role.

Removing a Member {#removing-members}

1. On the Members page, find the member.
2. Select Remove and confirm.

Removing a member removes their access to organization settings and any organization-managed features. They can continue using Zed on their own.
