User management

How can I manage users in Buddy?

Buddy provides the user management tools that allow you to control access of your team to various projects. To collaborate with a teammate, invite them to the workspace and add them to the selected project. The exceptions are the administrators and the workspace owner, who have access to all workspace projects.

Adding new users

To add new members to the workspace, navigate to the People tab and click the Invite New People button.

Once the invitation is sent, the new user will be added upon clicking the URL in the email.

New user default settings

By default, new users only have access to the projects once he's invited to them or granted admin rights. New users can only see other members with whom he's sharing projects. Newly invited workspace members can create and manage new projects, unless changed in the workspace settings.

Adding users to the project

You can add new users directly to the project via the Team tab. You can do this by clicking the Invite New button. You can also invite entire groups.
