Access Control

Supabase provides granular access controls to manage permissions across your organizations and projects.

For each organization and project, a member can have one of the following roles:

• Owner: full access to everything in organization and project resources.
• Administrator: full access to everything in organization and project resources except updating organization settings, transferring projects outside of the organization, and adding new owners.
• Developer: read-only access to organization resources and content access to project resources but cannot change any project settings.
• Read-Only: read-only access to organization and project resources.

When you first create an account, a default organization is created for you and you'll be assigned as the Owner. Any organizations you create will assign you as Owner as well.

Manage organization members#

To invite others to collaborate, visit your organization's team settings to send an invite link to another user's email. The invite is valid for 24 hours.

Transferring ownership of an organization#

Each Supabase organization must have at least one owner. If your organization has other owners then you can relinquish ownership and leave the organization by clicking Leave team in your organization's team settings.

Otherwise, you'll need to invite a user as Owner, and they need to accept the invitation, or promote an existing organization member to Owner before you can leave the organization.
