Team management in Dify is workspace-centric. When you add members to your workspace, they get access to workspace resources based on their assigned role. Understanding these roles helps you build secure, productive AI teams.

​
Team Size Limits

A workspace can include an unlimited number of members. Add as many teammates as your deployment can support.

​
Workspace Roles

Full workspace control. Only one owner per workspace. Controls all team members, model providers, and can delete the workspace.
Team and resource management. Can invite team members, configure model providers, manage all applications, and install plugins. Cannot change member roles or remove members.
Application development. Can create, edit, and delete applications, manage knowledge bases, and use all workspace tools. Cannot manage team members or configure providers.
Application usage only. Can use published applications and tools they have access to. Cannot create or modify applications.

​
Add Team Members

Workspace owners and admins can invite new team members:
1

Access member management

Navigate to Settings > Members in your workspace.
2

Send invitations

Enter email addresses and select the appropriate role for each new member.
3

Handle invitations

New users receive registration emails. Existing Dify users are added immediately and gain access right away.
Prerequisites:
  • Set CONSOLE_WEB_URL to an address invitees can reach, not localhost. Every invitation link is built from it.
  • Configure an email service with MAIL_TYPE. Invitations are delivered by email, so this is required to add members.
See CONSOLE_WEB_URL and Mail Configuration for details.
Invitation links expire after 72 hours by default (configurable via INVITE_EXPIRY_HOURS); if someone doesn’t accept in time, invite again to send a fresh link.
Members provisioned from your identity provider are managed in the Admin Console; see Member Management.

​
Member Management

Removing Members: Only workspace owners can remove team members. When removed, members immediately lose workspace access, but applications they created remain in the workspace. Role Changes: Only workspace owners can modify member roles. Role changes take effect immediately and alter what the member can access across the workspace.

​
Access Patterns

Resource Inheritance: All workspace resources (model providers, plugins, knowledge bases) are available to team members based on their role permissions. Application Access: Members see applications based on sharing settings and their role. Owners and Admins see all applications. Editors see applications they can modify. Members see only published applications they’re permitted to use. Configuration Access: Model providers and plugins configured at the workspace level become available to all applications created by team members with appropriate permissions.
