Abilities of roles in an enterprise

Learn which roles you can assign to control access to your enterprise's settings and data.

About roles in an enterprise

All users that are part of your enterprise have one of the following roles.

  • Enterprise owner: Can manage all enterprise settings, members, and policies
  • Enterprise member: Is a member or owner of any organization in the enterprise

People with collaborator access to repositories are listed in your enterprise's "People" tab, but are not enterprise members and do not have access to the enterprise. See Rôles dans une organisation.

Enterprise owners

Enterprise owners have complete control over the enterprise and can take every action, including:

  • Managing administrators
  • Managing organizations
  • Managing enterprise settings
  • Enforcing policy across organizations

Enterprise owners do not have access to organization settings or content by default, but they can gain access by joining any organization. See Gestion de votre rôle dans une organisation appartenant à votre entreprise.

Enterprise members
