Managing users and roles brukere og roller

How to invite new users, change roles, and remove users from your organization.

Written by Anna Tiril Uggerud

What and why

Each organization in Telescope has its own set of users. As an admin, you can invite new team members, change their roles, and remove users who no longer need access. This keeps your organization's account secure and up to date.

How it works

Telescope has two user roles:

  • Admin. Can invite and remove users, change user roles (promote to admin or demote to normal user), and access admin settings. Every organization needs at least one admin.

  • Normal user. Can use the platform (screening, assessments, portfolio views) but cannot manage other users or access admin settings.

Inviting a new user:

  1. Go to organization settings

  2. Click invite user

  3. Enter the person's email address

  4. The person receives an invitation email and follows the steps to create their account and set up two-factor authentication

Invitation links expire after two weeks. You can resend an invitation if it has expired.

Changing a user's role:

  1. Go to admin settings

  2. Find the user in the list

  3. Change their role to admin or normal user

Removing a user:

  1. Go to organization settings

  2. Find the user in the list

  3. Remove them from the organization

Good to know

Admins can promote and demote other admins. An admin can also demote or remove themselves, with one exception: if you are the only admin in the organization, you cannot demote or remove yourself. This prevents organizations from ending up without an admin.

Only admins can manage users. Normal users cannot invite, remove, or change roles for anyone, including themselves.

If you need to change which features your organization has access to (screening, Voyager, or both), contact us through the chat.
