How do I manage users, teams, and roles in Whippy?

Last updated: November 5, 2026

Use Users and Teams settings to manage workspace members, teams, and roles from one Settings area.

Before you start

  • Confirm you have permission to manage users, teams, or roles.

  • Review roles before adding many users so permission patterns stay consistent.

  • Use channel-specific settings when a user needs access to a specific channel.

Steps

  1. Open Settings > Users and teams.

  2. Select Users to review members, search the list, add users, and manage user-level assignments.

  3. Select Teams to review team names, member counts, and last updated dates.

  4. Create or open a team when you need to manage grouped users.

  5. Select Roles to review default roles or create a custom role.

  6. Open a user, team, or role before making detailed changes.

  7. Review related channel user settings if a person needs access to a specific channel.

Tips

  • Start with roles before adding many users so permissions are consistent.

  • Use teams for operational grouping, not just reporting labels.

  • Keep team names practical and recognizable to support routing and assignment workflows.

  • Review channel access after adding or changing a user’s role.

Troubleshooting

  • If a user cannot access a feature, check the user’s role and any channel-specific users settings.

  • If a team is missing from a workflow, confirm the team exists and has the right members.

  • If roles are not editable, create a custom role if you need a tailored permission set or ask an admin to review your access.
