Manage your Enterprise workspace
This one's for administrators of workspaces on the Enterprise plan! Find out more about your capabilities in Notion.
Workspaces on the Enterprise Plan have a few unique roles that allow for workspace management.
If your organisation has multiple workspaces in Notion, those workspaces can be brought together as one organisation. Organisation owners are able to view and manage all of their workspaces and members in one central place and apply settings across the board. Learn more about organisation owners and organisation level controls.
Workspace owners can manage everything in the workspace from settings and security to members and groups — and even Delete an entire workspace.
Think of them as the primary administrator of a workspace with the most expansive permissions.
Membership admins can add or remove members from workspaces, or add or remove members, other membership admins, and workspace owners from existing groups.
Membership admins can’t edit other workspace settings.
Note: Membership admins can add users to the workspace in a member role only. Membership admins cannot add workspace owners or membership admins to the workspace.
Note: Membership admins can only add other members to a workspace. They cannot designate workspace owners or other membership admins.
If your organisation is on the Enterprise plan, organisation owners can hand off specific admin work by giving members admin roles. Each role unlocks one area of your organisation settings, like membership or analytics. That way, you don't have to make someone a full organisation owner just to manage one setting.
Notion offers a set of ready-made admin roles:
Role | What it lets someone do |
|---|---|
Compliance admin | See the audit log, search content across the organisation, and manage legal holds. |
People admin | See and manage members, guests, groups, and teams across the organisation. |
IT admin | Manage identity, security, and integrations across the organisation. |
Analytics viewer | See analytics about members, content, and search across the organisation. |
Billing admin | See and manage your organisation's Notion credits. This role only appears for organisations that work with the Notion sales team. |
Only organisation owners can assign or remove admin roles. To assign an admin role:
Go to your organisation settings.
Open
People>Manage admin roles.Select a role to see what it covers and who has it.
Add or remove members from the role.
Members can hold more than one admin role. The permissions from each role add together, on top of their existing workspace role.
Any member in your organisation can be given an admin role. Guests and organisation owners can't.
Members with an admin role only see the parts of organisation settings their roles cover. Everything else stays hidden.
Admin roles apply across your whole organisation. You can't limit a role to a single workspace.
Admin roles don't change what someone can see or edit in pages or databases.
Roles are assigned to members one at a time. You can't assign roles through SCIM or groups.
Only organisation owners can create, rotate, and Delete the admin bots and tokens used with Notion's admin APIs.
