How to manage member and team settings in Backlog

Within your Backlog space, admins can manage Backlog-specific member and team settings. All other settings are managed through your organization.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to:

  • Manage members
  • Manage teams

Manage members

To access member settings, select your profile icon in the global navigation > Space settings > User settings > User. There, you can invite new members and view, search, and filter members.

As an admin, you can also select any member and manage the following settings:

  • Restrictions: Limit members so they can only view or add issues. Admins can’t be restricted.
  • Emails: Ensure members get Backlog reports and notifications. This overrides members’ personal settings.
  • Shortcut keys: Allow members to use shortcut keys.
  • Assign projects: Add or remove members from projects. Select the “Check all projects” box to add a member to all projects.

Manage teams

To access team settings, select your profile icon in the global navigation > Space settings > User settings > Team. Within your space settings, you can view all existing teams. Select “Manage teams” at the top of the page to create a new team, or select a team name in the list to make changes.
