Add Members to a Project and Assign Project Roles

This guide explains how to add members to a project in Authorium and assign them appropriate project roles. Properly assigning roles ensures team members have the correct permissions and access to project content and workflow stages.

  • Include new team members in a project.
  • Assign roles that control access to documents, forms, or workflow stages.
  • Restrict certain members to specific stages using stage-based permissions.
