Add and manage members in Hyver

How to define new users and assign organization-level roles.

Updated over 5 months ago

Overview

This article explains how to add new members to your Hyver organization. Once defined, members can be added to specific engagements to access data and perform tasks based on their role.

Roles determine what a member can do at the organization level, but access to each engagement must be granted separately.


Steps

  1. Open Members and Groups
    Click the Members and Groups icon at the top right of the page:

  2. Add a new member
    Click the + New Member button.

  3. Enter member details

    • In the Member's email field, enter the user’s email address:

    Note: A member’s email address cannot be changed later. To update it, set the member's status to Inactive, then create a new member with the correct email.

  4. Assign roles
    Choose one or both roles from the dropdown menus:

    • Administrator – Full control over all organization settings and members.

    • Power User – Can create and manage entities like engagements and assets. To work with findings in an engagement, they also need appropriate permissions at the engagement level (e.g., Findings & Graph initiator with Editor role).

    • User – Can view and export data but cannot create or edit content.

  5. Click Invite
    This sends an invitation email to the new member.

  6. (Optional) Edit existing members
    To edit a member, click the options icon next to their name and select Edit member. You can update roles or set the status to Inactive if needed.


Important notes

  • You can assign a new member to an engagement before they activate their account. This gives them access right away upon first login.

  • Access to engagements is not automatic — users must be added separately to each one.


Wrap-up / Next Steps

Adding a member is just the beginning — think of it as handing someone a badge. To get through the door, they still need to be granted access to the right rooms (engagements). Assign roles carefully, and review user activity regularly to keep your team secure and productive.
