What you'll learn
- Distinguish owner, admin, and member and what each can change.
- Apply least privilege — assign the narrowest role that does the job.
- Use team membership to scope who sees and owns which issues.
01
Workspace roles
6 min — Owner, admin, member — and what each can change.
Workspace roles control administrative reach: owners and admins manage billing, members, and workspace-wide settings, while members do the work. Assign the narrowest role that lets someone do their job — you can always elevate later.
02
Team membership
5 min — Teams scope who sees and owns which issues.
Membership in a team scopes access to that team's issues, boards, and cycles. Adding someone as an assignee on an issue makes them part of that work; Planoda keeps assignees and team membership consistent so nobody is assigned work they can't see.
