Once you create a team, you can add organization members to it.

Each team has its own individually defined access permissions for repositories.

Members of the Owners team can add or remove existing organization members from all teams.

Members of teams that give admin permissions can only add and remove other members and repositories for that team.

Notes:

  • A team that's synced to an LDAP group is indicated with a special LDAP badge. The member list for an LDAP synced team can only be managed from the LDAP group it's mapped to. To add someone to a team synced to an LDAP group, contact your LDAP administrator.
  • It's not possible to add an organization to another organization's team. Teams are limited to user accounts.
