Access & Team Members
Adding a tribe administrator
Inviting someone to run one tribe, choosing their permissions, and why the invitation has two steps.
Last updated September 2, 2026
From Users, open the person — or start a new one — and choose Add as Tribe Admin. Pick the tribe, confirm their name and email, and set their permissions.
Full or restricted access
One group deserves particular care. Tribe Setting includes the ability to delete the tribe, and Tribe Administrators lets that person add and remove other administrators. Neither is obvious from the name.
The permission list only shows modules your organisation actually has switched on, so it is shorter than the organisation role screen.
The invitation has two acceptances
Both acceptances live in the notifications area inside Gorilla Dash, not in the email. The email for somebody who already has an account simply links them there. Tell new administrators to check the bell menu.
They must register with the invited address
When Resend does nothing
For somebody who already has a verified Gorilla Dash account, Resend does not send an email — it re-links their in-app notification and reports success. They will find the invitation waiting in their notifications. Point them there rather than resending repeatedly.
Team member at the same time
The dialog offers Create Team Member, on by default, which also puts them in the Organisation Chart for that tribe. Leave it on — it is what makes them appear in contact lists, the tribe directory and your website team page.
