Adding other users to Workspaces
Workspace membership is based on groups on Bitrise: add people to Workspace groups so that the groups can be assigned to work on the Workspace's apps.
Your Workspace isn't just an environment to manage apps: it also allows seamless collaboration with other Bitrise users. You can invite other users to your Workspaces, and of course you can be invited to other Workspaces, too.
To be able to work with others in your Workspace, you'll need to add them to the groups of the Workspace. The only way to be a part of a Workspace is to be a member in one of the groups of the Workspace.
Workspace groups and roles
Workspace groups have no inherent roles at all. You can assign groups to app teams and choose their role there which means the same group can have different roles on different apps.
A Workspace group's name is not relevant: even if a Workspace group is called Admin, it doesn’t have the Admin role on any app by default and you can assign them to apps with other roles, too.
Creating groups for Workspaces
Owners only
Only Workspace owners can create groups for a Workspace.
-
Log in to Bitrise and open the account selector dropdown menu in the top right.
-
Find your Workspace and click the little gear icon next to its name to get to your Workspace settings page.
-
On the left, select Team from the menu options.
-
Select the Groups tab.
-
Click the Create group button to bring up a dialogue box.
-
Enter a group name in the Enter a unique name field, and click Create.
Adding members to a Workspace group
In practice, adding members to a Workspace means adding members to a group belonging to a Workspace. Once you have the groups you need for your Workspace, adding members to them is very simple.
Email addresses with prohibited characters
Please note that if you want to sign up for Bitrise with an email address, the address cannot contain the character +. Older accounts with such email addresses still exist but they cannot be invited to Orgs using the address. When adding them, use the username instead.

An app on Bitrise represents a Git repository that stores source code and has been connected to Bitrise to be able to run builds on it. As such, a Bitrise app isn't necessarily an actual application: it's just the code on which you run builds with Bitrise.
