Roles at a glance

What Admins, Leads and Members can see and do, at organization, project and work level.

Everyone has one role: Admin, Lead or Member. Admins can see and change every project. For Leads and Members, what they can do in a project also depends on its scope and whether they're on its team. The project manager label gives no extra rights.
