User Roles and Permissions

Quave Cloud uses role-based access control (RBAC) at the account level. Each member of an account can hold one or more roles, and each role grants specific capabilities.

Overview

When you create an account you automatically receive all available roles. You can then invite other members and assign any combination of roles to each person.

Roles are stored per account, so the same user can have different roles in different accounts.

Available Roles

RoleDescription
AdminFull control over account settings, and secrets.
TechnicalIntended for team members involved in technical operations.
BillingReceives billing-related email notifications such as payment failures, invoice reminders, and savings plan updates.
Pod AccessAllows opening terminal (exec) sessions inside running containers.
Manage MembersAllows inviting new members, updating roles, and removing members from the account.

Managing Roles

To manage roles for account members:

  1. Go to your account Members page
  2. Click the role badges next to a members name
  3. Add or remove roles as needed

Role changes take effect immediately. When Admin is added or removed, an email notification is sent to the affected member.

warning

Make sure at least one member retains the Admin role. Removing Admin from all members would lock everyone out of account management.
