Per-Member Permissions
Give one member different permissions from their role, and undo it.
Give one member different permissions from the rest of their role, without changing the role for everyone.
Overview
This guide shows how to change one member’s permissions and how to undo it.
Who Can Access
Team members need Edit Team Members and Edit Roles.
Step-by-Step Guide
Open their permissions
On the Team page, click ⋮ on the member and choose Permissions.

Change the boxes
The window shows their role’s permissions. Tick or untick what this person should have and click Save Permissions. They get a personal copy of the role; everyone else on the role stays the same.
Spot custom permissions
Their role now shows · Custom in the members table.

Undo it
Open Permissions again and click Restore shared role, then Restore. They follow the shared role again.
Good to Know
- You can’t give someone a permission you don’t have yourself.
- Changing the member’s role on the Edit page removes their personal permissions.
- Remote members have the same option under Remote Permissions.
