Managing user access to a project
To collaborate on a project, users must be part of the project. You can add workspace groups to a project from the Workspace settings page or the Project settings page.
Each Bitrise project is owned by a workspace - but this doesn't mean that all members belonging to that workspace have access to a given project. In order to be able to collaborate on a project, users must be assigned to the project.
A project's team consists of all users invited to work on the project. There are three ways to add users to a project's team:
-
Adding one of the groups from the workspace that owns the project.
-
Assigning a workspace member to the project. This also allows to set user roles at the same time.
Similarly, there are two ways to revoke access to a project:
Adding an outside contributor to a project
An outside contributor is a user who is assigned to a project but isn't a member of the workspace that owns the project. To add outside contributors, your workspace must have them enabled.

Configure product access by enabling one or more toggles and then selecting a role in the dialog. You have the option to grant universal access or to set roles on a product basis:

Admin access allows the contributor to manage all aspects of the project, including both the Bitrise CI configuration and the Release Management apps. Note that this gives full access to an outside contributor!
-
Select a product to assign the contributor specific roles that only apply to that product. If the project doesn't have a CI configuration or a Release Management app, the respective option won't be available.

Adding Workspace groups to a project
Assigning a workspace group to a project means that all members of that workspace group will have the same role on the project. Roles are different based on product access: both Bitrise CI and Release Management have their own roles.
Let’s say the workspace called TestSpace owns a project called TestProject. TestOrg has the following groups:
-
Group Alpha: they are assigned to TestProject with an Admin role. Members of this group can assign other groups to the project or add outside contributors, change project settings, manage roles and Workflows.
-
Group Beta: they are assigned to TestProject with a Developer role. Members of this group can run builds, view build logs and view builds.
-
Group Gamma: they are assigned to TestProject with a Tester/QA role. They can only view builds.
