Workspace members

Abstract

A Bitrise Workspace allows seamless collaboration on Bitrise projects. You can manage Workspace membership on the Collaboration page of the Workspace settings. A member can be an owner, a regular member or an outside contributor.

Your Workspace isn't just an environment to manage projects: 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.

You can manage Workspace membership on the Collaboration page of the Workspace settings. Workspace members can be organized into groups: this makes it easier to assign multiple Workspace members to the same project. Members of the Workspace can have one of three roles:

  • Owner: The owners of the Workspace. Full administrative control over the Workspace without restrictions. A Workspace can have multiple Owners. The default Owner is the account that created the Workspace.

  • Manager: The user can access and modify Workspace settings such as connected service accounts, can manage members but can't access billing details and can't delete the Workspace.

  • Viewer: The user can't access Workspace settings and can't add new members or manage existing members.

You can manage regular members on the Members tab. On the tab, you can see:

You can search for a specific Workspace member or use the filter function to filter members based on their roles.

Adding members to Workspaces

You can invite people to a Workspace if they have a Bitrise account. Workspace members can be assigned to the projects owned by the Workspace. When inviting new members, you can:

  • Add users in bulk: you can invite as many members as the number of available seats on the Workspace.

  • Add them to the team of all projects owned by the Workspace, or just to particular projects.

  • Assign them user access roles to manage their permissions on the projects' team. When adding users in bulk, all of them will be assigned the same role.

SAML SSO

Bitrise supports SAML SSO for your Workspace. To learn more, check out SAML SSO in Bitrise.

Inviting a new member to a Workspace with SAML SSO enforced is a different process: Adding a new user to a Workspace with enforced SAML SSO.

You can modify a member's user roles on project teams at any time after inviting them. You can also add members to Workspace groups.

To add individuals as a Workspace member:

  1. Log in to Bitrise and hover over the left navigation bar.

  2. Make sure you have the right Workspace selected in the Workspace menu.

  3. Select Settings.

    Workspace limits

    You can't invite people who are already part of the Workspace and the number of invitations can't exceed the available seats of the Workspace.

  7. When done, click Next. It takes you to the Set workspace role page.

  8. Select a Workspace role that defines access to the Workspace settings.

    • Manager: The user can access and modify Workspace settings such as connected service accounts, can manage members but can't access billing details and can't delete the Workspace.

    • Viewer: The user can't access Workspace settings and can't add new members or manage existing members.

  9. After clicking Next, set the access roles for the new members in the different projects. You can select either of three options:

    • All projects: Set the same role for all projects of the Workspace. All new members will have access to all the projects of the Workspace, including any future projects added to the Workspace, with the same permissions.

    • Roles per project: Set a role for each project. If you choose the None (no access) option, the new member won't have access to that project at all.

    • Click the Skip now button to skip setting roles for now. This means none of the new members will have access to any projects until you assign them roles.

Managing user roles in Workspaces

Workspaces have three access roles:

  • Owner: Only Owners have full access to the Workspace, including managing membership and project ownership. Only Owners can delete the Workspace.

  • Manager: Managers can access almost all Workspace settings, including managing members. They can't access billing and can't delete the Workspace.

  • Viewer: Viewers are Workspace members who can be added to the teams of the projects owned by the Workspace. They don't have access to the Workspace settings.

You can manage user roles on project teams from your Workspace page.

Workspace groups

Workspace groups can also have their own user roles assigned: that means every user in the group will have the same role on the same project's team: Managing app access roles for Workspace groups.

  1. Log in to Bitrise and hover over the left navigation bar.

  2. Make sure you have the right Workspace selected in the Workspace menu.

  3. Select Settings.

  6. Click the edit icon edit-webhook.svg next to a member's name to edit their roles in project teams.

  7. On the Projects tab, set the access roles for the member on the different projects. You can select either of two options:

    • All projects: Set the same role for the member for all projects of the Workspace.

    • Roles per project: Set a role for each project. If you choose the None (no access) option, the member won't have access to that project at all.
