Team members
Team members link user accounts to a team with a role and status.
Roles
| Role | In the system | Permissions |
|---|---|---|
| team admin | member_role = ADMINISTRATOR | Member management, project deletion, invites. See Team admin. |
| member | member_role = MEMBER | Projects, cases, runs, and test execution |
Who can change role and status
Only a team admin can:
- change another member's role (
ADMINISTRATOR↔MEMBER); - change another member's status (
PENDING,ACCEPTED,BANNED,REJECTED); - remove a member from the team.
Regular members cannot change roles or statuses — including their own admin flag.
The team creator receives team admin automatically when the team is created. Details: Team admin role.
Member status
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
PENDING | Not yet active (rare in current invite flow) |
ACCEPTED | Active member |
BANNED | Removed from active use |
REJECTED | Declined or revoked |
Only ACCEPTED members with the ADMINISTRATOR role are treated as active team admins.
Inviting users
Team admins can invite by email (POST /web_api/team_member/invite_emails with emails[]).
Important: today the invite flow only adds users who already have a Complex QA account. If the email is not registered, that address is skipped. There is no pending-invite email for new signups yet.
For each existing user:
- The user is added to the team.
- Default status: ACCEPTED.
- Default role: MEMBER (team admin can promote them later).
Ask colleagues to register first, then send the invite.
Managing members
Team admins can:
- search members (
/web_api/team_member/search); - create or update properties (role, status);
- remove members (
delete).
Bulk updates are supported via update_property_mass.
The number of team admins you can assign may be limited by your tariff after the beta period. During 2026–2027 beta there is no admin cap. See Limits.
User profile vs team role
Profile fields (first name, last name) are per user. Member role is per team — the same person can be a team admin in one team and a member in another.
