Change team member roles

Updated on 2 min Admins only Open in Cenedril

Goal Change a team member's role (Admin or Member) and, when needed, transfer account ownership to another person.

In Cenedril you manage roles under Team on the Team Members tab. In the table, the per-row buttons switch a member’s role between Admin and Member. Only the current owner can transfer the Account Owner role, by promoting another person to owner and confirming the transfer in the confirmation dialog.

Change a member’s role

Open Team

In the sidebar open Team. The page starts on the Team Members tab and shows a table with name, email, role, and last login. Each row carries the available actions on the right.

The team members table with the role column and per-row actions.

Pick the member

Find the row of the person whose role you want to change. The Role column shows the current level: Account Owner, Admin, or Member. No actions appear on your own entry.

Switch the role

Click the role button in the row. For a member it reads Promote to Admin and grants admin rights. For an admin it reads Revoke Admin Rights and returns the person to Member. The new role is saved immediately and the table refreshes.

Result: the Role column shows the changed level, and the person now has the matching rights.

Transfer ownership

Promote the person to owner

In the row of the person you want, click Promote to Owner. This button appears only when you are the Account Owner and the row belongs to another person.

The “Confirm Transfer of Ownership” dialog before handing over the owner role.

Confirm the transfer

The Confirm Transfer of Ownership dialog opens, warning that you will lose the owner role and give up billing responsibility. Check the named person and click Confirm. Cancel closes the dialog without any change.

Result: the selected person now holds the Account Owner role, your own account has been downgraded to Admin, and billing access sits with the new owner.

Frequently asked questions

Which roles exist?

Cenedril has three roles: Account Owner (exactly one person, responsible for billing), Admin (manages the team and settings), and Member (works in the account). On the Pro plan you can also create custom roles with finer-grained permissions through Access Control.

Can I revoke the Account Owner role?

No. Ownership can only be transferred. As soon as you make another person the Account Owner, your own account is automatically downgraded to the Admin role.

What happens to billing when ownership is transferred?

Ownership carries billing responsibility to the new person. The previous owner loses access to billing and keeps the Admin role.

Why are there no buttons on my own entry?

Cenedril hides the role and delete actions on your own row. This prevents you from changing your own role or removing your own account by accident.

Who can transfer ownership?

Only the current Account Owner sees the “Promote to Owner” button. Admins can switch roles between Admin and Member, but cannot hand over ownership.
