Project Roles

1238888

Members (users and teams) with project roles are invited to a project by members with workspace roles, see also Invite Users and Teams to a Project.

A project role is a list of permissions for a particular project. This means that members with these roles do not have permissions for any other project and that they cannot create projects. This also means that they only have limited access to Sphere XG features.

If you prefer a table format, see Overview of Roles and Permissions on the Workspace and Project Level.

The following project roles are available:

Users and teams can have more than one workspace and project role. For example, a Group Manager may also be Project Admin in the same workspace or another workspace.
