A user's access comes from three sources: team membership, direct product assignments, and their security policy. You can combine all three to get the level of control you need.

## Assign users to teams

Users in a team inherit that team's product access and roles. This is the most efficient way to manage access for multiple users at once.

1. Open a user for editing
2. Open the **User Teams** tab
3. Click **+ Add team**, then search or use **Select all** to pick one or more teams; each team shows its member count
4. Click **Save changes**

The user now has access to all products assigned to those teams.

## Grant product access with roles

You can assign users directly to products and specify a role for each one. This supplements team-based access when you need more granular control.

1. Open a user for editing
2. Open the **Access** tab
3. Click **+ Add product**, then search or use **Select all** in the selection modal
4. Pick a role for the product: Administrator, Beta tester, Reporter, Supervisor, or Tester
5. Click **Save changes**

Each product lists an **access source**: **Manually added** for direct assignments, or **From [team]** when the access is inherited. A product the user reaches through several teams or roles shows **Multiple**, so you can always see why a user has access to a product.

Remove a manually added product with the trash icon at the end of its row. Inherited products can't be removed here; adjust the team's access instead.

## Apply security policies

Security policies control password requirements and authentication rules per user. You set the policy when creating a user and can update it later.

1. Open a user for editing
2. Open the **Security policy** tab
3. Choose a policy from the dropdown
4. Click **Save changes**

If you're adding an existing user to your workspace, the security policy defaults to the workspace default.
