Manage members and roles

For OwnersChecked against the app on October 1, 2026

Settings → Team lists everyone in your organization, with their role. Owners and Admins invite people there, change their roles and remove them. Anyone can leave. What each role may do is in Roles and permissions.

Before you start

  • You're an Owner or Admin. Builders and Analysts can see the team, and leave it.
  • Only an Owner can make someone an Owner, or change or remove an Owner.
  • Settings is in the account menu at the foot of the sidebar.
  • There's no limit on how many people you invite.

The team list

Each row shows a person's name, their email, when they joined, their role and a ⋯ menu. Your own row says (you). Invitations not yet accepted are listed under Invitations, each with its role, who sent it and the date its link stops working.

The team: each person's name and email, when they joined, their role and a ⋯ menu, with Invite someone above.

Steps

Invite someone

  1. Open Settings → Team and click Invite someone.
  2. Under Their email, type their address.
  3. Under Role, choose Admin, Builder or Analyst. Builder is chosen to start. The info icon beside Role says what each can do.
  4. Click Send the invitation. The dialog says Invitation sent to <email>, with the link it sent, in case you want to pass it on yourself.
  5. Click Done.

They get an email, <your name> invited you to <organization> on HiloVoice, with a Join the team button. The link works for a week, once, and only for the address you typed. Someone new makes an account with that address; someone with an account logs in. Then they click Join <organization>.

Nobody is invited as an Owner. Invite them as an Admin, then hand ownership over.

Change an invitation

  • Send again sends a new link, good for another week. The old link stops working.
  • To change an invitation's role, invite the same address again with the new role.
  • The X beside an invitation takes it back at once: Invitation taken back.

Change someone's role

  1. On Team, find the person.

  2. Choose the new role in the box beside their name. A message says Role changed.

    The role box beside a builder's name, open: Owner, Admin, Builder and Analyst.

Any role but Owner applies at once, with no question first. An Admin can choose Admin, Builder or Analyst; an Owner can also choose Owner, which makes the person an Owner alongside you. That one asks first: read Make <name> an owner?, then click Make them an owner. A message says <name> is an owner now. An organization can have more than one.

Hand ownership over

  1. Open the ⋯ menu on the person's row, and click Hand ownership over.

    The ⋯ menu on an admin's row: Hand ownership over, and Remove from the team.

  2. Read Make <name> the owner?, then click Make them the owner. A message says <name> is the owner now.

Important: You become an Admin. Only an Owner can make you an Owner again.

Remove someone

  1. Open the ⋯ menu on their row, and click Remove from the team.
  2. Read Remove <name> from the team?, then click Remove. A message says <name> is off the team.

Leave the team

  1. Open the ⋯ menu on your own row, and click Leave the team.
  2. Read Leave <organization>?, then click Leave. You lose access to its agents, calls and leads, and HiloVoice opens another of your organizations.

What happens next

  • A new role, or a removal, applies from the person's next click. Their screen catches up when it next refreshes.
  • Nothing a person made moves when they leave or are removed. Agents, campaigns, calls, leads and contacts belong to the organization, and their name stays on what they did.
  • An API key stops working when the person who made it leaves, or is no longer an Owner or Admin. An owner or admin makes a new one under Settings → API keys.
  • Owners and Admins are told <name> joined the team when someone accepts an invitation. Role changes, removals and people leaving send no notification, and nobody is emailed about them.
  • Settings → Activity records each invitation, join, role change, removal, departure and hand-over, under People. Not every plan includes the activity log.
