Project Members

Project members are users invited at the project level. They are assigned either the Owner or Collaborator role.

Organisation members already inherit Owner-level access to all projects in the organisation. Project memberships are used to grant access to specific projects without granting access to the whole organisation.

Project Roles

Owners can manage project settings, activate and deactivate services, manage quotas, project memberships, and service instance memberships.

Collaborators can view the project and use activated services. They cannot manage project settings, service lifecycle, quotas, project memberships, or service instance memberships.

Memberships in Service Instances

When a service (Compute or Kubernetes) is activated, all existing project members are automatically granted membership to the corresponding service instance. From within each service view, permissions can then be managed by project owners to tailor access to specific resources or features.

Invite a New Project Member

Project or organisation owners can invite new project members and select whether they should be added as an Owner or Collaborator.

Navigate to Members in the sidebar menu.
Go to Members tab.
Click Invite member.
Enter the email of the person you wish to invite.
Select the project role.
Click Invite to send an email invitation containing a link to join the project.
Direct Add: If the email address belongs to an existing organisation-wide member, the user is added directly instead of receiving an email invitation.

Invitation Flow and Rules

Navigate to Members > Invitations tab to view and manage sent invitations. This tab is only shown to users who are allowed to invite new project members.

Expiration: Invitations expire after 7 days if not accepted.
Resend: If an invitation expires, you can resend it from the Invitations tab.
Revoke: You can revoke a pending invitation at any time, invalidating the invitation link.
Duplicate Invitations: If an invitation to the same email address is already pending, you cannot send another until the existing one is revoked, expired or failed.

Update a Project Member Role

Project and organisation Owners can change the role of any project member, including their own, for example, to step down to Collaborator if they no longer want project administration responsibilities. Collaborators cannot change project member roles.

Navigate to Members > Members tab.
Locate the user in the table.
Click Edit next to the user's name.
Select the new role and save.

Remove a Project Member

Project and organisation Owners can remove project members at any time. Removing a user at the project level affects only that project and does not remove them from other projects. Project members can also remove their own membership.

Navigate to Members > Members tab.
Locate the user you wish to remove in the table.
Click Remove next to the user's name.
In the pop-up, click Confirm.

The user receives an email notifying them of the removal.
