# Manage members and roles

> Invite people to your Livespace, give each a role, group them into teams, and remove someone without losing their work.

Owners and admins manage who is in a Livespace in Settings › **People**. Everyone you invite takes a seat, and each person has one role that decides what they can do.

## Invite people

1. Open Settings and choose **People**.
2. In **Invite by email**, enter the person's email address, then choose **Invite**.

Dvina sends them an invitation by email. If they already use Dvina, they're also told in the app. Until they join, they show in the list as **Invited**, with the day the invitation expires.

New people join as **Member**. You can change their role once they're in.

To take an invitation back, open its menu, choose **Cancel Invitation…**, then confirm. The person can no longer join with it.

> [!TIP]
> On Enterprise, people can also join through your identity provider, with single sign-on or SCIM. See [Single sign-on and provisioning](/docs/teams/sso).

## Join a Livespace

When someone opens the link in their invitation, Dvina joins them to the Livespace and says **You joined** and its name.

- The invitation works only for the email address it was sent to. If they're signed in with another account, Dvina asks them to sign in with that address.
- An invitation that expired, was canceled or was already accepted no longer works. Send a new one.

A person can belong to more than one Livespace and switch between them in Settings › **Account** or from the Dock.

## Roles

| Role              | What they can do                                  |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| **Owner**         | Everything an admin can do, and manage owners     |
| **Admin**         | Manage all the things                             |
| **Billing Admin** | Use the Livespace and manage its plan and payment |
| **Member**        | Access public items and create new ones           |

**Billing Admin** is available on Enterprise.

To change someone's role, choose their current role next to their name, then choose the new one.

- Only an owner can make someone an owner, or change an owner's role.
- You can't change your own role.

Whoever makes a Livespace is its owner.

## Teams

Teams let you share with a group at once. Admins create them and choose who is in each.

1. In Settings › **People**, choose **Teams**.
2. Choose **New Team** and enter a **Team name**.
3. Open the team, choose **Add People**, then pick who's in it.

Removing someone from a team keeps them in the Livespace. Deleting a team stops sharing its items with its people; the people stay in the Livespace.

## Seats

When your plan counts seats, **Seats** shows how many are used, like 12 of 15 used. Open invitations take seats too.

- When all seats are taken, you can't invite more people until you choose **Add Seats**. It opens **Plan & Usage**.
- If someone tries to join a Livespace with no seat left, Dvina asks them to ask an admin to add a seat.

## Remove a member

1. In Settings › **People**, open the person's role menu and choose **Remove from Livespace…**.
2. Under **Hand their content over to**, choose who gets the insights, reports and databases they made for the team. Nothing is deleted.
3. Choose **Remove**.

They lose access to the Livespace. To sign someone out without removing them, choose **Signed-In Devices** from the same menu.

## Good to know

- On Enterprise, you can give members attributes, such as their region or department, from **Member Attributes**. A table's [access rules](/docs/connectors/row-and-column-access) can show each person only the rows that match theirs.
- When you belong to more than one Livespace, you can leave one from Settings › **Account**. Leaving keeps it for everyone else.
