Overview
Greptile uses a three-tier permission system to control access to different features and capabilities within your organization’s admin dashboard. Each permission level builds upon the previous one, providing increasingly comprehensive access to administrative functions.Permission levels
Members

Managing user permissions
To modify user permissions in your organization:- Navigate to the admin dashboard

Only Admins and Owners can modify user permissions. Members cannot change role assignments.
Best practices
- Principle of least privilege: Assign users the minimum permission level needed for their role
- Regular audits: Periodically review user permissions to ensure they remain appropriate
- Multiple owners: Consider having multiple Owners to prevent lockout scenarios
- Role transitions: Update permissions promptly when team members change roles or leave the organization
