Manage Access Levels

• When you create a team, you automatically get assigned as an Owner.

• When others are invited to an Anima team, they can only be Admins, Contributors, or Viewers.

• When others are invited to a specific Anima project, they are Guests.

Members & Roles

Owner

• There can only be one owner to a team: the creator of the team or if they transfer ownership to someone else
• Can invite, edit, and delete the team
• Can have a Contributor (paid seat) or Viewer (free seat) role

Owner Viewer

• This is suitable for a manager that wants to create a team but does not need to contribute to the design or code work and therefore doesn’t need a paid seat.

Owner Contributor

• They can manage the account and work on Projects alongside their team. They are most often department heads or team managers that run a design team.

Admin

• Can do everything the Owner can except for deleting projects and team they belong
• Requires a paid seat in Basic and Pro plans and has full access to the plan’s features

Contributor

• Can invite members to join team and edit member’s roles
• Requires a paid seat in Basic and Pro plans and has full access to the plan’s features

Viewer

• Can only view and comment on any project inside the team
• Does not require a paid seat
• Does not have access to paid plan features

Viewer Member Example

A designer wants to invite someone for feedback. This person will only need to run the prototype and leave comments but will not view or export code. By inviting them as Viewers, no extra paid seats are needed

Guests

The fourth type of member is Guest.

Guests are similar to Viewers, but the difference is that Guests can only have access to the project they were invited to and not the entire team the project belongs in.
