Owners and admins1 min read

Edit a role, level or view#

  1. Open Settings, then People
  2. Choose Edit beside the person
  3. Change the Role, Permission level or View

    Their email cannot be changed here.

  4. Choose Save changes

Remove someone#

  1. Choose the trash button beside the person
  2. Read the confirmation

    For someone who has signed in: they lose access right away and their sign-in is deleted. Everything they created stays with your team. For someone who has not: their invitation is cancelled.

  3. Choose Remove person

Reset two-step sign-in#

If someone lost their phone and has no recovery codes, choose Reset two-step beside their name and confirm. Their authenticator and recovery codes are removed, they set up a new one at their next sign-in, and IdeaLine emails them to say it happened.

Make someone the owner#

Only the owner can do this. Choose Make owner beside a person who has signed in, then confirm. They control the workspace, the billing contact and deletion. You become an Admin, and only they can reverse it.

Be careful

You cannot remove yourself or the owner here. To leave, see Delete your account.
