Guidelines for managing Directory Sync users
Section titled “Guidelines for managing Directory Sync users”Note that Directory Sync requires Organization SSO and requires a Netlify Enterprise plan.
If a team member is provisioned by your organization’s Directory Sync, then keep the following guidelines in mind:
- Organization Owners can change a SCIM provisioned person’s role by editing their directory group mapping.
- We recommend Organization Owners and Identity Provider admins give users the least permissions necessary.
- Team Owners can upgrade a user’s permissions for a specific project, such as an internal tool, by editing project access in the Netlify project dashboard. This overrides the team default role set by SCIM Directory Sync for a specified project.
- A Team Owner can give members provisioned by SCIM access to additional projects not specified in their directory group mapping or the identity provider.
- These updates will not be visible through the identity provider or Organization Owner’s admin dashboard, but can be viewed from the Netlify team dashboard or project members dashboard.
Remove a team member
Section titled “Remove a team member”To remove a team member, select . You can also use this option to remove yourself from a team.
Note that every team must have at least one Owner. As an Owner, you cannot remove or demote yourself unless there is an additional Owner on the team.
Delete inactive Git Contributors
Section titled “Delete inactive Git Contributors”On the Members page for your team, you can access a list of your active and inactive Git Contributors. To remove an inactive Git Contributor, choose the Git Contributor you would like to remove and select .
Note that deleting the Git Contributor does not automatically remove the user from the associated Git repository. Unless you remove them from the repository, the user can still trigger a build.
