Project collaborator roles and permissions
Collaborators who are not members of the project creator’s IBM Cloud Account will soon lose access to the projects they were added to. To maintain access for existing collaborators, they must be added to the project creator’s account. Once this change takes place, only members of the project creator’s account can be added as collaborators.
When you add a collaborator to a project, you specify the actions that the user can do by assigning a role.
These roles provide permissions for projects:
- Viewer: View the project.
- Editor: Control project assets.
- Admin: Control project assets, collaborators, and settings.
The following table lists the allowed actions for each role in a project:
