# Users

The Users page lets you manage who has access to your project. You can invite new members, assign roles, and remove users.

## Finding a member

The users list has a **search bar** at the top. Type a name or email address to filter the list in real time. If your project has many members, use the **Previous** and **Next** arrows at the bottom of the list to move between pages.

## Invite users

1. Open the **Users** module from the project sidebar.
2. Click the **Add User** button.
3. On the invite page, start typing the person's email address or username in the search field. A list of matching users appears as you type - click a name to select them.
4. If the person is not shown in the list, type their full email address and click **Add User** directly.

{% hint style="info" %}
The invited user will appear in the list once they have been added. They can access the project according to their assigned role.
{% endhint %}

## Pending invitations and join requests

When someone has requested to join the project or has a pending invitation, their entry in the list is marked accordingly. Two buttons appear next to pending members:

* **Checkmark (Accept)** - approves the request and adds the person as a member.
* **X (Reject)** - declines or removes the pending request.

These buttons are only visible to users with the appropriate permissions.

## Roles

Information Hub provides three built-in roles:

| Role          | What they can do                                                                 |
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Admin**     | Full control over the project, including settings, user management, and all data |
| **User**      | View and edit data across all modules (forms, tables, dashboards, etc.)          |
| **Submitter** | Submit data through forms only - cannot view or edit other project data          |

### Editing a member's role

1. Find the member in the list.
2. Click the **ellipsis (three-dot) menu** on their row.
3. Select **Edit Role**.
4. In the dialog that appears, choose a new role from the selector.
5. Click **Update** to save the change.

### Custom roles

If the built-in roles do not fit your needs, you can create custom roles with specific permissions:

1. Go to [Project Settings](/project/settings.md).
2. Open the **Roles** section.
3. Create a new role and configure its permissions.

## Remove a user

To remove someone from your project:

1. Find the user in the list.
2. Click the **ellipsis (three-dot) menu** on their row.
3. Select **Remove**.
4. Confirm the removal.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Removing a user revokes their access to the project immediately. Any data they submitted remains in the project.
{% endhint %}

## Leave a project

If you are a member of a project and there is at least one other Admin, you can leave the project yourself. Click the **Leave Project** button in the toolbar at the top of the Users page.

{% hint style="warning" %}
You cannot leave a project if you are the only Admin. Transfer the Admin role to another member first, or ask an Admin to remove you.
{% endhint %}
