Give someone access

Add people to a space, choose their role, and limit them to some regions.

How-to guide1 min read

Everyone signs in through Orbit with a method their organisation allows; there are no separate passwords.

Add someone to a space

  1. Open Configuration › Access.
  2. Choose Add, find the person among your organisation's members, or type their email to invite someone new, and pick a role. With Microsoft SSO connected, people from your Microsoft directory are listed too.
  3. Optional: limit them to some regions. They can read every region but only change the ones chosen.

Someone added for the first time gets an invitation email with a link to sign in. People who have not signed in yet show as Not signed in yet. They still receive notifications and see them when they first sign in.

Roles

Each role is a set of permissions. See Roles and permissions for exactly what each can do. Administrators can create their own roles in the organisation's settings.

Removing someone

Who belongs to your organisation is decided in Orbit, and CMS Orbit always follows it:

  • Remove a space role under Configuration › Access to take away only that space.
  • Remove someone under Members to take them out of CMS Orbit entirely, with every space role they had. They stay in your organisation if they use other satellites.
  • Remove someone in Orbit, or untick CMS Orbit for them there, and they disappear from Members and Access straight away.

Suspended people cannot sign in and are not notified.
