Getting started with teams

Create a team, invite members, and assign roles in Meilisearch Cloud.

Teams in Meilisearch Cloud let you organize project access for multiple collaborators. This guide walks you through your default team, inviting members, and assigning roles.

Your default team

When you sign up for Meilisearch Cloud, a default team is automatically created for you. You are the owner of this team and have full administrative control over it.

Your default team is associated with all projects you create. Any member you invite to the team gains access to those projects based on their assigned role.

Navigate to teams and members

1. Log in to the Meilisearch Cloud dashboard
2. Click the Organization tab
3. Find Teams and members section

The Teams and members section displays all members in your organization, along with their roles and the teams they belong to. You can filter members by team using the All teams dropdown.

Invite a team member

1. Select a team in the dropdown of the Teams and members section, and click Invite member
2. Enter the email address of the person you want to invite
3. Click Send invitation

The invited person receives an email with a link to join your team. Once they accept, they appear in your team members list.

Understand team roles

Meilisearch Cloud has two team roles:

Role	Description
Owner	Full access to all projects, billing, team management, and settings. Can invite and remove members, change roles, and delete projects.
Member	Can view projects and perform searches. Has limited access to project settings and cannot manage billing or team membership. See manage API keys for key-level access control.

A team may only have one owner. If you need to transfer ownership, the current owner must explicitly reassign it from the Teams and members section.
