How it works

1. Accessing the Administrators Section

Key Features and Capabilities

Organization-Based Administrator Management

This feature provides a centralized management tool, allowing administrators to set permissions and transfer ownership across workspaces within an organization. Key highlights include:

  • Organization-Level Control: Previously, members had to be individually added to each workspace, making cross-workspace management difficult. Now, administrators and owners can manage members and permissions organization-wide, streamlining the user management process.

  • Automatic Inheritance: Workspaces created under an organization automatically inherit quotas and resources, such as devices and SMS allocations, eliminating manual configuration.

Assigning and Managing Permissions

Administrators can be added by:

  1. Clicking Add Member and entering their email. The member must have an existing Datacake account.

  2. Assigning one or more of the following permissions:

    • Workspaces: Manage workspace-related permissions.

    • Members: Handle member access and roles.

    • Billing: Manage billing settings and information.

    • White Label: Configure white-label settings.

This flexibility allows the assignment of specific roles, such as a Billing Administrator, without granting unnecessary access to other areas.

Ownership Transfer

For organizational needs, ownership transfer is now possible:

  1. In the Administrators list, open the context menu next to any administrator.

  2. Select Transfer Ownership.

  3. After transferring ownership, the original owner can remove themselves from the administrator list.
