Changing workspace members’ roles
First, go to Workspace settings, which you'll find under your workspace name in the top left corner:
There, click the down arrow next to the member you want to promote or demote and choose the desired role. Read more about the different roles in this article.
Note:
- Only admins can change workspace member roles
- All members of the workspace are admins if you're on the Free plan
