Users and roles

Invite users, assign roles, and keep workspace access aligned with business responsibility.

Users and roles decide who can enter Automate and what they can do. Use Adminspace to keep access intentional, especially for production workflows and shared agents.

Open Admin Panel → Users or Admin Panel → Roles.

The relationship

ConceptMeaning
UserA person who can sign in to Automate
RoleA reusable permission set
Workspace membershipWhich workspace a user belongs to
Project accessWhich project-level content the user can work with

Roles should match business responsibility, not job titles alone. For example, a finance operations builder may need more workflow permissions than a finance viewer.

Review users

  1. Open Users

    In Admin Panel, go to User Management → Users.

  2. Search or filter

    Find the person you want to review. Confirm workspace membership and role assignment before editing.

  3. Update access

    Add, change, or remove the user's access based on their current responsibility.

    Users shows who can sign in and lets SuperAdmins review workspace and role access.

Manage roles

Open Admin Panel → Roles.

Roles centralise permission decisions. Instead of customising every user one by one, create roles that match common responsibility levels, then assign users to those roles.

Examples:

Role ideaTypical purpose
Workspace viewerRead agents, workflows, and execution history
Workflow editorBuild and test workflows
Agent builderCreate and configure agents
Workspace adminManage workspace-level users and settings
SuperAdminManage platform-level Adminspace settings

Access review checklist

Review access when:

  • A user joins or leaves the organisation.
  • A user changes team or responsibility.
  • A project moves from testing to production.
  • A managed app or AI connection is added.
  • A workflow starts touching sensitive systems.
