Assign roles

Members of an organization can either be assigned to be a Full member or Admin of an organization.

  • Full member: a full member can access all of the organization's public channels and any private channels or threads that they're added to or create. They'll be able to enable and set up integrations as well.

  • Admin: admins have the same permissions as full members, but can also manage an organization's settings and members.

Manage guests

Admins can allow members to add guests to channels and threads from their organization settings.

Admins can view and manage the guests in their organization from the View Members page.

Adding guests to channels and threads

A guest can be added directly to a channel or thread within an organization.

  • If a guest is added to a channel, they will only have access to that channel and the threads within it

  • If a guest is added to a thread, they will only have access to that thread

The guest will be able to access the channel or thread from their Personal workspace on Threads.

User lists

User lists are an efficient way to tag members of a specific team or group on Threads.

Once a user list is created, anyone in the organization can @-mention the user list to notify everyone on it about a thread or quickly add that group to a channel, thread or chat.

All members can view and create user lists within an organization.

To create a user list:

  1. Select View members from the top left-corner of Threads

  2. Click Create user list

  3. Add in the details of the user list and add people to it
