Teamwise Team Admin
5. Team Permissions & Settings
The Team Permissions & Settings module serves as the central configuration hub where team administrators define team-wide policies, access controls, and operational parameters.
This interface uses an accordion-style layout to organize settings into logical categories, allowing admins to establish governance rules that control how members interact, communicate, and collaborate within the workspace.
Core Functionality:
1. Invite Members Settings
Displays all team channels in a comprehensive table view, including:
Admins can:
-
- Restrict invitation rights to administrators only
-
- Allow all members to send invitations
This setting defines the team’s growth model and access control strategy.
2. Team Sign-Up Permissions
Controls how users can join the team through various methods.
Admins can configure:
-
- Team visibility (public or private)
-
- Direct join without invitation (enable/disable)
