Teams

Shorebird Teams tier and higher allows adding an unlimited number of collaborators to an app. Shorebird free “Hobby” users can upgrade to the Teams tier to add collaborators via a link in the Shorebird console.

Permissions

Permissions are internally stored per-app. Not all permissions are publicly editable at this time, we plan to expose more controls soon. If you would like to make changes to your app in the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to contact@shorebird.dev.

Collaborator (aka “Developer”)

The Collaborator role can:

  • Read app information
  • View collaborators
  • Create releases and patches
  • View insights

Collaborators can be added and removed by any Admin, see below.

Admin (automatically assigned to the account which created the app)

The Admin role can:

  • Everything a Developer can do
  • Create and Delete Apps
  • Add and Remove Collaborator for an App

Admin permissions cannot currently be modified directly. Please email us if you need to add/remove Admins from an app.

Billing account (aka App Owner)

  • Billing is tied to Owner
  • Owner can be either a Developer or Admin, by default is an Admin

Owner can be changed by contacting us.

Managing Collaborators

Collaborators can be managed on the Shorebird console. To add a collaborator, from your app’s page:

  1. Select the “Collaborators” tab.
  2. Click “Add people”.
  3. Enter the email address of the person you would like to add as a collaborator.
    1. Note that the email address must be associated with an existing Shorebird account.
  4. Click “Add Collaborator”.

Existing collaborators can be removed by clicking the trash icon next to their email address.

Sharing Multiple Apps

Each app maintains a separate list of collaborators. If you need to share multiple apps with a team, you will need to add each app separately. If this isn’t working for you, please let us know and we’re happy to look at adding support for sharing groups of apps: https://github.com/shorebirdtech/shorebird/issues/739

Transferring Ownership

We do not currently have an automated way to transfer ownership of an app. However you’re welcome to contact us and we will be happy to help you transfer ownership of an app.
