Teams
A team gives a group of people shared access to your account with one set of permissions. Teams are the usual way to give several people access to a project at once - for example your own developers, or an external partner such as a web agency - instead of creating and maintaining a contact for every individual.
Why use a team instead of contacts
-
One set of permissions for the whole group. Set what the team may do once; everyone in the team inherits it. You do not repeat the permissions person by person.
-
Built for projects and partners. Give a team access to the services that make up a project (for example a TurboStack server and its Domain Name System (DNS)), so the right people can work on it together.
-
Easy to invite and remove. People join with an invite code, and you can change the team's permissions or remove the team in one place.
Invite a team with an invite code
You add people to a team with a unique invite code:
-
Select Manage contacts > Teams, then Invite Team.
-
Give the team a Name and Description.
-
Set the Invite Code - a unique code you share with the people who should join. Anyone with the code can join the team and receive its permissions, so treat it like a password.
-
Optionally enable Allow notifications to remote team members.
-
Choose the team's permissions (see below), then select Save changes.
Share the invite code with the people who should join. To create a team without an invite, use Add new team on the same screen.
Permissions and pre-made privileges
A team uses the same permissions as a contact - see Contacts > Permissions for the full list and what each group does. Two points are worth repeating:
-
TurboStack > Access UI is required for team members to sign in to the TurboStack Platform and manage the servers there.
-
Granting the Billing or Support permissions sends team members the billing/administrative or technical emails for your services.
To set permissions quickly, use the Pre-made privileges presets at the top of the list:
Pick a preset as a starting point, then fine-tune the individual permissions.
