Members & roles

  1. 01

    Org roles: admin and member

    On organization level there are two roles:

    • Admin: full access to channels, members, branding, billing and API tokens.
    • Member: can join channels and broadcast. No access to member management, branding or billing.
  2. 02

    Invite a member

    Under Organization → Team click Invite, enter email and role, and send the invite. The invitee receives a join link. If they don't have an OpenBooth account yet, it's created in the same step. Open invites can be resent or revoked.

  3. 03

    Change role or remove member

    In the member list switch a member's role between admin and member. Use the context menu to remove someone from the organization. Existing sessions are ended immediately.

  4. 04

    Channel roles: host and speaker

    Per channel there are two additional roles for studio contributors:

    • Host: leads the broadcast. Controls speaker microphones, moderates Q&A and announcements, ends the session.
    • Speaker: talks in the studio. No access to studio controls.

    Assign members to one of these roles in channel settings under Contributors. An org admin isn't automatically a host. External speakers come in via the guest-speaker flow as speakers.

    Tip

    A person can have different roles in different channels.
  5. 05

    Guest Speaker

    Guest speakers are external people without an org account. They enter exactly one channel as a speaker. No access to the channel list, billing, team, or other channels. Dedicated waiting-room UI at /guest/[channel].

    Note

    Guests are bound to a single channel. Sees no org navigation or other sessions.
