If you're working with a team, you can invite or remove users from your Rewind account and assign them the appropriate roles based on their responsibilities. This guide walks you through how to invite a new user, remove an existing user, and assign a role using Rewind’s Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system.
Note: All members can view the Member Permissions tab, but only users with the Organization Owner or Organization Admin role can invite new users, remove users, or adjust permission levels. For more information on permission levels across different roles, see the Guide to User Roles and Permissions in Rewind (Role-Based Access Control).
Steps to invite a user to your Rewind Organization
- Log in to your Rewind account at https://app.rewind.com.
- In the left-hand menu, select Account Settings.
- Select the Member Permissions tab.
- Click the Invite New Member button.
-
Fill out the fields:
- Name: Enter the full name of the person you want to invite.
- Email: Enter their email address.
-
Role: Choose one of the following roles from the dropdown:
- Organization Admins can manage settings, billing, integrations, and users, but cannot transfer ownership or perform exports.
- Integration Admins can configure and manage integrations, including initiating backups and restores. Cannot manage users or billing.
-
Read-Only users can view integration details, backup and restore history, and activity logs, but cannot make changes or perform restores.
Tip: Follow the principle of least privilege—grant the lowest role that still lets the user do their job. - Click Invite user to send the invitation.
