How do I change a user's portal role?
Who can do this
Owner can assign any role (except Owner — use transfer ownership).
Admin can assign Billing, Viewer, or Member only.
Portal roles control what someone can do across the customer (Users, Billing, Settings). Tenant roles are separate.
Steps
- Open Users in the sidebar.
- Click the row of the user you want to change.
- In the expanded panel, change the Portal Role dropdown.
- The change saves automatically.
Restrictions
- Admins can't change another Admin's role — only the Owner can.
- No one can change the Owner's role from the dropdown. Use transfer ownership instead.
Result
The user's role updates immediately. Their next page load reflects the new permissions — sidebar items they no longer have access to disappear, and protected actions get hidden.
