Managing Users in LinearB

Effectively managing users in LinearB ensures that the right team members have appropriate access to reports, dashboards, and settings.

Inviting a User to LinearB

Invite additional users to your LinearB account by following these steps:

1. In the LinearB side menu, click Settings to open the Company Settings.
2. Go to the Users tab.
3. Click Invite Users.
4. In the Invite User form, enter the following details about the new user:
   1. Name
   2. Email address
   3. User's role (see User Permissions below)
   4. For Viewer or Editor roles, specify which User Teams the new user can access.
5. Click Send Invitation to email the invitation to the user.

If the Invite Button is Disabled

Your organization uses Single Sign-On (SSO). This means that:

• New users must request access through your internal IT team or SSO provider instead of being manually invited.
• If you need access, contact your SSO administrator to be added to the system.

Managing Pending Invitations

• When the invitation is sent, the user’s status will display as Pending until they accept the invitation and join LinearB.
• When a user logs in, their activation status will update from Pending to reflect the date they joined LinearB.
• If a user hasn’t accepted their invitation, you can resend it, generating a new email invitation.

Editing User Permissions

Only Admin users have the ability to edit permissions for other users. Follow these steps to update a user's permissions:

1. In the LinearB side menu, click Settings to open the Company Settings.
2. Go to the Users tab.
3. Locate the user whose permissions you want to edit.
4. Click the three-dots next to the username and select Edit Permissions.
5. Choose a new permission level (Admin, Editor, or Viewer).
6. For Editor or Viewer roles, specify which teams the user can access.
7. Click Save to apply the changes.
