Members

The Members tab lists the people Chat knows in your workspace (your tenant), the roles they hold and what those roles mean in Chat. It is read-only: you cannot add people or change roles here.

Chat permission: administration.read

Administration, then Members. This is the tab that opens first.

The table has three columns.

Column What it shows
Member The person’s display name, with their email address underneath when Chat has one
Identity Server roles The roles the person holds in your workspace, separated by commas, or a dash when there are none
Chat capabilities The number of Chat permissions the person has, for example “12 capabilities”, or the label no Chat role when they have none

The roles and the permission count are the workspace-wide ones. Permissions that apply only inside one application are set separately on Roles and permissions.

Type a name or an email address, or part of one, in Search members… and press Enter. Clear the box and press Enter to see everyone again.

The list loads a page at a time. Select Load more below the table to see the next page.

Chat lists the active members it already knows. A person appears after Chat first sees them, which happens when they use Chat. Someone you just added to the workspace in the Identity Server may not be listed until then.

Chat keeps its copy of roles for a few minutes, so a change made in the Identity Server can take a short while to show here. To see it sooner, use Refresh from the Identity Server.

Roles are assigned in the Identity Server, not in Chat. Select Manage roles in Identity Server at the top of the tab to open the Identity Server admin UI in a new tab. Back in Chat, Roles and permissions decides what each role may do.

Nothing is changed on this tab, so nothing is recorded. Who holds which role is recorded by the Identity Server.

Add people to the workspace and assign them roles: see the Identity Server documentation.

The same action is available through the API: List members. These operations need a user token; a machine client never gets administration permissions.
