Team, roles & departments

Bring your team in from Settings → Members (they need a BaseBlock account first — then the owner adds them by email). Three roles:

• Owner — everything, including managing members and roles.
• Admin — tables, columns, automations, and integrations; not members.
• Member — data entry: add and edit rows, import CSVs, view everything. No schema changes, no automations, and no access to the workspace's provider keys.

These limits are enforced by the database itself, not just hidden buttons — a member's request to change a table is refused server-side regardless of what any client sends.

Departments

A member can be limited to particular modules. Doing that person by person works for five people and becomes unmanageable at twenty, because the list has to be rebuilt from memory for every new hire. Departments fix that: grant the modules to a department once, put people in it, and the right access follows from being placed.

• It only adds access, never removes it. A department is a floor, not a ceiling — anything a person was granted individually stays.
• It only affects restricted members. A member without module restrictions already sees everything, so putting them in a department changes nothing.
• One department per person, so "what can Sita see?" stays a glance rather than a query.
• Deleting a department does not remove anyone from the workspace — they simply stop inheriting what it granted.

Like the roles above, this is enforced in the database. The same function that decides whether you may open a table consults your department, so the rule holds no matter what a client asks for.

You can invite people who don't have a BaseBlock account yet — they're added automatically the moment they sign up with the invited email (and if your email integration is configured, the invite goes out through it).

Every workspace also gets Team chat and a notification bell fed by your automations — both in the top-right corner of every page. And any row can be turned into a clean printable document — open its details (the link icon) and hit Print / PDF: an invoice-style page with the row's fields and its linked line items totalled, saved as PDF straight from the browser.
