How to Add Users to Teams

If the user does not already exist in OpenMetadata, then invite the user to OpenMetadata. While creating the new user, you can add them to the relevant Team as well as assign them the relevant Roles.
Note: You can add a User to multiple Teams when creating a New User.Add User to Team
If the user, already exists in OpenMetadata, then
  • Go to Settings > Members > Teams.
  • Select the specific team you would like to add a user to. A team may have further sub teams. Select the required sub team.
  • Click on Add User.
Note: Only Group teams accept direct user members, so the Add User option shown here doesn’t appear on other team types. To add a user under an Organization, Business Unit, Division, or Department, add them to a Group team nested under it instead. Users will inherit the Roles that apply to the Team they belong to.

Assign Domains to a User

Only administrators can change the domains a user belongs to. Non-admin users cannot add or change their own domains. Bots cannot change them either.
  • Domains a user inherits from a team do not count as the user’s own domains.
  • Saving a user’s profile with the domains they already hold, or with none, is allowed.
  • Other changes users make to their own profile, including their default domain, are not affected.
