People must already appear in the organization directory before you can add them to a workspace. Personal workspaces have no member list. Other people cannot be added to them. ## Open the member list 1. Open **Settings** from the Atlan sidebar. 2. Under **Workspaces**, select the workspace. 3. Find the **Members** card. Product and Design workspace member list with Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer roles Use the search field to find an existing member by name or email. Atlan paginates the list when it contains more than ten members. ## Add members 1. Select **Add a member**. 2. Search by name or email. 3. Select one or more people. 4. Confirm the addition. Adding Ethan Brooks and Sofia Reyes to Product and Design New workspace members receive the **Member** role. You can change their role after they have been added. People with a pending organization invitation can be added. Suspended or deactivated people do not appear as choices. ## Change a member's role 1. Find the member in the list. 2. Select their current role badge. 3. Choose **Admin**, **Member**, or **Viewer**. The change takes effect immediately. Your own role and the workspace owner's role are read-only in this list. ## Remove a member 1. Open the action menu on the member's row. 2. Select **Remove from workspace**. Removing a workspace membership does not remove the person from the organization. It only removes their access to this workspace. Atlan blocks the removal or demotion of the workspace's last admin. Promote another member to admin before changing the last admin's access. ## Inactive members If an organization member is later suspended or deactivated, their workspace row remains visible with an **Inactive** label. They cannot be added to another workspace while inactive. ## Verify the change Search the member list again and confirm the person's role or absence. Ask the person to refresh Atlan before checking their workspace access. Compare Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer access.
