Managing your organization & team access

Managing your organization

When you create a Bitmovin Account via the Bitmovin Dashboard an organization is also created automatically and you become the owner of the organization.

You can access your organization details & settings via your profile:

You will find your organization details & ID in your Organization Overview.

Managing your team

Via your organization's team settings you can invite additional users to the Bitmovin Dashboard and also manage their access by adding them to groups and defining group permissions.

Inviting team members

Invite your team members by clicking the + Add button next to "Users":

Enter the email(s) of the user(s) you want to add to your organization and specify the groups you want to add them to and eventually click Save:

The users you have invited will receive an email and once they've created their account they can select your organization in the top menu bar and switch to it.

If the account already exists, they can just log in and select the correct organization in the top menu bar.

Managing groups

By default, there are three predefined groups available:

GroupDescription
DevopsAllowed to view Encoding, Player, and Analytics resources
Account AdminsAllowed to view and manage account settings
Product AdminsAllowed to view and manage Encoding, Player, and Analytics resources

Creating new groups

If none of the predefined groups fits your needs, you can create a custom group with custom permissions. In order to create a custom group, go to your Team settings, and click on the + Add button next to Groups:

💡

Tip

We recommend to use a descriptive name and description, so it is easy to see what set of permissions are configured for this group. By default, if no permissions are added to a group everything will be denied. So, by adding permissions you can allow specific actions that users of this group can perform.

Group permissions

To manage group permissions, go to your Team settings and click on the Edit button next to the group name and description.

The following permission levels are available:

Permission levelDescription
