Set member permissions

Completed

Team owners have control over member permissions. Member permissions are easy to change or amend at any time by checking or unchecking the box next to each permission. The owner has the ability to make these changes to benefit a smoothly running team. To change permissions from the default setting, select the ellipses by the Team name > select Manage Team > then select Settings.

As the School of Business is building out two new courses of study, for example, the department chairs are tasked with overseeing the progress and development. As the Team owners, the department chairs elect to change member permissions so that members may create new channels as they design the course of study and build the courses.

Any of the boxes can be checked or unchecked to allow or restrict members from:

  • Creating and updating channels
  • Deleting or restoring channels
  • Adding or removing apps
  • Creating, updating, or removing tabs
  • Creating, updating, or removing connectors
  • Deleting all messages
  • Deleting their messages
  • Editing their messages

In the general channel, the owner can allow or restrict anyone from:

  • Posting messages
  • Showing alerts that posting will notify everyone (recommended for large teams)
  • Selecting where only owners can post messages

The owner can change these settings as needed.
