Access to organizations is controlled via permission roles. These define the access and editing rights of the respective role. When you create an organization you are automatically its admin.

Only an organization Admin is allowed to grant or change access permissions to organization members.

There are three organization permission roles in Allex:

  • Admin - Has all permissions in an organization. An Admin can customize all organization settings, e. g. adding members to an organization, edit or remove them and change their access permissions.
    Furthermore this permission role includes admin access rights on all projects and team boards of the organization.

  • Member - Has restricted permissions in an organization. A Member can only add members to an organization.
    Moreover viewing projects and team boards of an organization is granted.

  • Guest - Has no permissions in an organization and cannot see the organization.
