# Project Members & Access

Ordinary organization membership does not automatically grant access to every project. Organization admins are the exception: they inherit Admin access to every project. Use **Members** in the project sidebar to control everyone else's project access.

## Add a member

Select **Add user**, choose an existing organization member, and assign a project role. If someone does not appear, check whether they already have a direct project role. Otherwise, add them to the organization first.

See [Managing Project Access](/docs/ai/organization/project-access/) for the complete member workflow.

## Add a team

Use the **Teams** section to grant the same project role to a group. Team members inherit that access while they belong to the team.

Teams can receive Viewer, Editor, or a non-Admin custom role. Give Admin directly to a person when full project control is required.

## Review access

Before changing or removing an assignment, select **View effective permissions**. This shows permissions from a direct project-role assignment and access inherited from the organization or a team.

See [Roles & Permissions](/docs/ai/organization/roles-and-permissions/) for the built-in roles and [Custom Project Roles](/docs/ai/organization/custom-roles/) for narrower permission sets.
