When you reach the limit of workspace managers on your workspace you will see the following message appear:
- "You have reached the maximum number of managers for this workspace. To give someone workspace manager permission, you must first remove workspace manager permission from another user."
When the limit is reached, you will need to remove an existing workspace manager to add a new workspace manager. You can choose to swap out managers as many times as you require. All workspace managers have the ability to swap workspace managers out.
To switch out a workspace manager:
- Go to the 'Manage workspace' (three cogs icon) in the top right and select 'Members and Teams'
- Find the member you want to become a workspace manager and click 'Modify' (pencil icon)
- Under 'Permissions for this User' tick or untick 'This user is a workspace manager'. If you are giving someone workspace manager access you will need to confirm that you want to make this user a workspace manager.
- Then click 'Save'. The workspace member's permissions will now be updated.
What to do if you are unable to add anymore managers after removing existing managers:
If someone needs to permissions to view/create/modify an item/pages that other members should not be able to do, they can be given permissions through using Teams, rather than being made a manager of the entire workspace.
