Founder Sherpa uses role-based access control to manage who can do what within a workspace. Each member has one of three roles: Owner, Admin, or Member.

​
Inviting members

Owners and Admins can invite new members:
  1. Go to workspace settings
  2. Click Invite Member
  3. Enter the person’s email address
  4. Select a role (Admin or Member)
  5. Click Send Invite
The invitee receives an email with a link to join the workspace.

​
Changing a member’s role

  1. Go to workspace settings → Members
  2. Find the member you want to update
  3. Select the new role from the dropdown
  4. Confirm the change
You cannot change your own role. Owners cannot demote themselves — transfer ownership first if needed.

​
Removing a member

  1. Go to workspace settings → Members
  2. Click the remove button next to the member
  3. Confirm removal
Removed members immediately lose access to all workspace content.

​
Transferring ownership

Owners can transfer ownership to another member:
  1. Go to workspace settings → Members
  2. Click Transfer Ownership next to the target member
  3. Confirm the transfer
After transfer, you become an Admin and the new member becomes the Owner.

​
Leaving a workspace

Members and Admins can leave a workspace at any time. Owners must transfer ownership before they can leave.
  1. Go to workspace settings
  2. Click Leave Workspace
  3. Confirm
