Inviting your team and managing roles

You can add teammates to your workspace and control what each can do.

Inviting someone

Go to Settings → Team → Invite User, enter their email, and pick a role. They get an email with a link to join. If they're new to Samba they'll create an account first; if they already have one they just sign in.

Invitations last 7 days, and you can resend or revoke them from the Pending tab.

The roles

Role

What they can do

Owner

Everything, including billing and ownership. One per workspace.

Admin

Everything except billing and transferring ownership.

Manager

Everything except billing; can manage the team, but not Owners or Admins.

User

Day-to-day work — bookings, trips, customers, payments.

Viewer

Read-only.

Managing members

From the Team page you can change a member's role, remove them (they move to Archived and can be restored later), or transfer ownership to an Admin.

A couple of safeguards: you can't remove yourself (use Leave workspace instead), and an Owner has to transfer ownership before leaving, so a workspace always has an owner. You also can't change or remove a teammate at your own level or above — an Admin can't act on another Admin, and a Manager can't act on an Admin or another Manager.

Seats

Your plan sets how many team members you can have. A pending invitation counts against that limit too, not just people who've already joined — so if you're at your seat limit, revoke an unused invitation or upgrade before sending a new one. See Plans and what's included.
