Managing your team: permissions, invites and removing users

There are two levels of user permission in DISCO: admins and regular users.

In Settings > My Team, you can manage your team on DISCO. This page shows all active business members and invited members of a team. 

Admins

Each business needs to have at least one admin. For new businesses, the first user will be made an admin, and they'll then be responsible for assigning permissions to other users. 

There are certain actions that only an admin can perform. These include:

• deleting other users

• making other users admins

• changing admins to regular users

• updating business settings in Settings > Business settings 

• requesting to delete the business via business settings

Regular users

Regular users can invite other users and cancel invites. 

Changing user role

To change a user's role from admin to user, or user to admin, click the menu to the right of their name: 

Inviting users and cancelling invites

New users are officially added to your team when they click the link on the invite email and set up their accounts. Before they click the invite link, their invites can be cancelled by any business user (admin or regular user) via the Cancel invite option. 

You can also resend invites from this menu.

Deleting users

Admins can delete other users by clicking into the ellipses menu to the right of their name and selecting Delete user:

This will bring up a confirmation message:

When a user is removed, parts of their account are transferred over to the admin user who deleted them:

• Their personal Inbox becomes a custom Inbox. The admin who deleted them becomes a Manager of this Inbox, and it is only visible to them.

• The deleted user's content becomes a Channel. The admin who deleted them becomes a Manager of this Channel, and it is only visible to them.

• The admin who deletes the user is also added as a Manager to all Channels that were previously owned or managed by the deleted user.
