Roles & access
Two separate ideas — organization roles and project roles — work together whenever you use Studio. They're evaluated based on where you are in the UI and which project is active.
Organization and project roles are owner / member at the organization level and owner / member / viewer on projects. More granular controls may be added later; the organization and project structure stays the same.
Organization roles
You'll manage these under Settings → Organization → Members (owners only).
| Role | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full control of the organization. Organization profile, creating/archiving projects, invites, assigning people to projects, organization‑wide analytics — plus full access inside any project whether or not they're listed there. |
| Member | Listed on the org roster but not granted project access automatically. They need at least one project to use Studio for API work and dashboards; until then, they’ll see a limited workspace until an organization owner adds them to a project. |
At the organization level there are only two roles: owner and member. There is no separate “organization admin” role.
Project roles
Set per-person under Settings → Project → Members (and during invite flows that drop people onto teams).
| Role | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Owner | Manages this project: teammates, model access, rename, archive. Can do whatever a member can. |
| Member | Normal build & operate work: keys, calling models via the product, dashboards for this project. Can't change who's on the roster or widen model access unless they're also an owner. |
| Viewer | Read-oriented access; how prominently this role appears in the UI can vary. |
Quick cheat sheet
| Organization owner | Project owner | Project member | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day‑to‑day work inside a joined project | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Manage that project's people & model access | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| Create/kill projects, invite organization‑wide, organization analytics | ✓ | — | — |
Reminder: Organization owners always have access to every project, whether or not they appear on a project’s member list. If you’re an organization member but not on any project yet, ask an organization owner to add you.
