Manage members

Change someone's role, remove them from your organisation, or hand ownership to another member.

Go to Settings and select Manage members. Everyone can see the member list. Only admins and the owner can change it.

Change someone's role

  1. Find the person in the list.
  2. Change their org role, their brain role, or both, using the menus on their row.

The change applies straight away. You can't change your own org role.

Remove someone

Select the X on their row. You can't remove yourself or the owner.

If they owned any routines, those routines pause until an admin gives them a new owner. The same happens if you move someone below the Write role.

ako won't let you remove the last admin on a restricted brain, because nobody would be left to change who can reach it. Add another admin to that brain first.

Hand over ownership

Only the owner can do this.

  1. Select Make owner on the row of the person taking over.
  2. Confirm.

They get full control, including billing. You stay an admin, and only they can hand ownership back.
