A user role is a collection of different permissions. During adding a new member to your project you can choose a user-role. You grant that member all permissions which this user-role contains as soon you added the member to your project.
Adding users to an organization
There are two ways to add users to an organization:
Directly to the organization:
On the left side navigation, select the user's page
Click on add new user
Type the user's email address and the name of the user
Add the user
This gives the user access to the organization. Per-Default with Admin-user role rights. However, they won't see any of the app projects listed in the organization unless they're explicitly invited to the app project as a member or if they create their own app project from the dashboard page. As soon as you have create your new user they will get an invitation e-mail to verify their account.
Directly within an existing project as a project member:
Select your app project
Go to Project Settings
Select Users & Permission (Project Members)
Invite new project member
Type the user's email address and select the user-role
Select the applications of your project where your user should get access
Invite him
If the newly added member is already a user within your organization he will now have access to your app project with the given user-role.
If the new added member is not already a user of your organization, he will get an invitation e-mail from Updraft, after verifying his account he is able to see the app project where he was invited to.
Advanced access Organization level
Managing user access to app environments
As an organization Owner , you can control user access to specific app environments within an app project. Here's how to manage access:
Steps to Manage Access
Disable Access to a Single App Environment:
Owner can disable a user's access to a specific app environment, preventing them from viewing or interacting with it.
Enable Access to a Single App Environment:
Owner can grant a user access to a specific app environment of a project.
Enable Access to Multiple App Environments:
Owner can enable access for a user to multiple app environments simultaneously.
Additional Guidelines
Dashboard Visibility:
If a user has project access but no access to any app environments within it, the project will not be visible on their dashboard.
Direct URL Access:
Users without access to a specific app environment cannot access it via direct URL in the dashboard.
Admin Role Access:
When adding a user with the Admin role to a project, no specific apps need to be selected. Admins of a project automatically have access to all app environments in the project.
Tester/Mobile-User Role Access:
When adding users with the Tester or Mobile-User role to a project, you can select which apps they can access.
Adding a New Member
When adding a new member to a project, owner and admin can define their access to specific apps/environments in a second step, ensuring precise control over user permissions.
List of Users of an organization
As the owner of your organization, you can view all the users in your organization. To do this, simply click on the Users page in the navigation bar.
Editing user role per project
As an Owner of an organization, you have the possibility to edit the user role per project per user (project access).
Remove user role from project
As an Owner of an organization, you have the possibility to remove a user from a project.
Select the user you would like to edit, select the project, click on the 3 dots and then remove it from the project.
Removing users from an organization
As an Owner you have the possibility to remove users from your organization. If you do so, they will lose all access to your organization account.

Transfer account owner rights
Only one person can have the rights of the account owner. A user with account owner privileges can transfer their account owner privileges to another user within their organization. As soon as an account owner has transferred his rights to another user, this user receives the user role 'Admin' and no longer has access to the projects of the organization.
Steps to transfer account owner
Login as account owner
Go to usermanagement page
Select the user you would like to transfer your owner account
Click on the 3 dots
Confirm it with your password
Disable 2FA for single users (if enforced)
As an Owner you can always see the status of 2FA for all users from your organization.
If 2FA is enforced for your organization you can disable 2FA for specific users by:
On the left side navigation, select the page Users
Select User from the list
Check the status of 2FA
Disable it
