Administration

Users

Users are the people in your organization. Admins invite them, choose the teams they join, and remove them when they leave. Everyone can set their own name and timezone in Preferences.

The Users list

Open the menu (☰) and choose Users. Admins, Members and Viewers can all see the list (permission org:view). It shows each person’s Email and Name. Choose an email address to open that person’s page.

Invite people

You need the Admin role (permission org:invite_user).

  1. Open the dialog

    On the Users page, choose Invite Users.

  2. Enter email addresses

    In Email addresses, type an address and press Enter. Add as many addresses as you like.

  3. Choose their teams

    In Add to teams, select one or more teams. At least one team is required: the people you invite join these teams when they accept, and their teams decide which projects they reach. See Teams and roles.

  4. Send

    Choose Send Invite. With several addresses the button counts them, for example Send 3 Invites. The dashboard confirms that the invitations were sent.

You can also invite someone straight onto one team: on the team’s page, choose Add User and type their email address.

If you invite someone who is already in the organization, they are added to any of the chosen teams they are not on yet. If you invite someone you removed earlier, they return to the teams they were on before, and the teams you chose are not applied.

How an invited person joins

The invited person receives an email invitation with a link to join. Following it takes them to the Spice Labs sign-in page at dashboard.spicelabs.io, where they sign in with Google or with a sign-in link sent to their email. Some organizations also ask for a second verification step, such as a code from an authenticator app.

After signing in, they land in the project you sent the invitation from, already on the teams you chose. If they belong to more than one organization, they can switch with the organization switcher at the start of the breadcrumb.

A person’s page

Choose a person’s email on the Users page to open their page.

  • Info shows their Name and Email.
  • Teams (“Teams this user belongs to”) lists each team they are on, with its Roles and Projects. Admins see this section (permission org:manage_teams).

To add the person to another team, choose Add to Team, pick a team under Select team, and choose Add. To take them off a team, choose Remove from team on that team’s row. They stay in the organization and on their other teams.

Remove someone from the organization

You need the Admin role (permission org:remove_user).

  1. Find the person

    On the Users page, find the person’s row.

  2. Remove

    Choose Remove user on the row. The dialog asks you to confirm and warns “They will lose access to all projects.” Choose Remove.

Removing a person:

  • takes them out of the organization and off all of its teams
  • ends their sign-ins to the organization immediately
  • disconnects the apps they connected, such as AI assistants

You cannot remove the organization’s last member.

Your preferences

Open the menu (☰) and choose your name in the Account group. The Preferences page has two sections:

  • Profile: Email (read-only) and Name. Your name appears in the menu and on admin pages in place of your email address.
  • Timezone: “Affects how dates and times appear throughout the app”. Search for a zone in the Timezone field (“Search timezones…”), or choose your region on the world map.

Choose Save. The dashboard confirms with “User Preferences Saved”. Until you choose a timezone, dates and times appear in US Eastern time (America/New_York).
