Managing Users

2 min read

Hawzu gives you two main places to manage users:

  • The workspace Users page for workspace-wide user management
  • The project Users page for access to a specific project

Use the workspace page when you need to review one person’s overall access. Use the project page when you need to manage who can work in the current project.

Workspace Users Page

Section titled “Workspace Users Page”

Open a workspace and go to Users to review workspace members.

The workspace Users page shows each member with:

  • Avatar or initials
  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Workspace role

You can search by name or email, filter by role, and sort the list.

User Details in the Workspace

Section titled “User Details in the Workspace”

Select a user to open their details view.

Depending on your permissions, you can:

  • Review the user’s name, email, and workspace role
  • Change the user’s workspace role
  • Add or remove project assignments
  • Update project roles
  • Add or remove group membership
  • Delete the user from the workspace

The Projects section shows the projects assigned directly to the user. The Groups section shows the groups the user belongs to.

Project Users Page

Section titled “Project Users Page”

Open a project and go to Users to review project access.

The project Users page shows:

  • Full name
  • Email ID
  • Direct project role
  • Inherited roles
  • Available actions

You can search, filter by role, and sort users by name, email, or role.

Add Workspace Users to a Project

Section titled “Add Workspace Users to a Project”

Use Add Workspace Users when a person already belongs to the workspace and needs direct access to the current project.

To add users:

  1. Open the project Users page
  2. Click Add Workspace Users
  3. Search by name or email
  4. Select one or more users
  5. Choose a project role for each selected user
  6. Click Add Users

Every selected user must have a project role before they can be added.

Workspace users with the Viewer role are not listed because viewers cannot be added to projects.

Update Project Roles

Section titled “Update Project Roles”

From the project Users page, you can change a user’s direct project role from the Project Role column when your role allows it.

Users with the Project Manager role may require additional permission before their role can be changed.

Inherited roles are shown for visibility. They are controlled through groups, not through the direct project role selector.

Workspace Viewer Restriction

Section titled “Workspace Viewer Restriction”

Workspace users with the Viewer role cannot be part of projects or groups.

If a user’s workspace role is changed to Viewer, Hawzu warns that their project and group associations will be removed before the update is applied.

Permissions

Section titled “Permissions”

Available actions depend on your role. You may be able to view users but not invite users, update roles, remove project access, or delete workspace users.

When an action is unavailable, your current role may not include that permission.
