Team

Bring collaborators into your tribe. Invite people by email, hand out the right level of access, and keep your roster clean as it grows.

Running a tribe is rarely a one-person job. A manager helps you ship the next drop, a designer builds the website, someone runs your store, a steward works the door on show night. Team is where you bring those people in, without handing anyone the keys to the whole house.

Every collaborator gets their own login and their own set of permissions. You decide exactly which parts of TribeNest they can touch, and you can change your mind at any time.

How team access works

Your tribe always has one owner, the person who created it. The owner has full access to everything, including billing, payment setup and the Team page itself. That role can't be changed or removed.

Everyone else is a team member, scoped to a single tribe, with a set of permissions deciding which areas of the dashboard they see and what they can do there. Start from a built-in role preset such as Store Manager, or build the set from scratch.

When you invite someone, they get an email with a link. If they already have a TribeNest login they sign in and join instantly. If not, they create an account first, which is the same flow with one extra step.

Where to start

What you'll find on the Team page

Open Team in the sidebar and you land on a two-tab view:

  • Members: everyone who currently has access, with an access summary and their join date.
  • Invites: every invitation you've sent, with its status (pending, accepted or expired) and quick actions to resend or cancel.

In the top right, Invite Member opens the invite dialog. That's the same starting point whether you're adding your first collaborator or your tenth.

One tribe at a time

Permissions are scoped to the tribe you're in. If you run more than one, switch to the right one in the profile switcher before sharing access. An invite only applies to the tribe you sent it from.

Built-in role presets

So you don't have to set thirty rows by hand every time, TribeNest ships with presets that map to common jobs:

  • Admin: everything except the financial areas, and it keeps up automatically as TribeNest adds new areas.
  • Content Manager: memberships and posts, blog, emails, courses, coaching, events, streaming, collections and the website.
  • Store Manager: products, coupons, offers, donations, invoices, memberships and the website.
  • Marketing: emails, smart links, forms, coupons and the website.
  • Event Manager: events, streaming, emails and the website.
  • Door Staff: scan tickets and read the door list, and nothing else. Perfect for someone hired for one night.
  • Read Only: view-only across everything except the financial areas.

Any custom roles saved for your tribe show up in the same dropdown. Each preset is a starting point rather than a cage: pick one, then change any individual area to fit the actual job. See permissions for the full breakdown.

A few ground rules

  • The owner can never be removed and always has full access.
  • You can't remove yourself from the team. Ask another member with team access to do it.
  • Anyone with Team set to All Access can invite, edit and remove other members, so grant that one carefully.
  • Finance and Invoices can only be granted by the owner. An admin editing the team won't even see those rows.
  • Billing sits outside permissions entirely. Only the owner can change the plan or payment setup. See billing.

Trust, then verify

Team access lets people act on your behalf. They can publish posts, refund orders, email your fans and more. Only invite people you trust, give them the smallest set of permissions that lets them do the job, and look over the Members tab from time to time.
