Removing a member or changing their role

Promote a teammate to admin, drop them back to member, or remove them from the workspace entirely — all from the Members settings page.

Workspace admins and owners can change any member's role or remove them from the workspace. Both actions live on the same page used for invites.

Step 1 · Open Members settings

Open Settings → Members. The Members tab lists every active user with their role shown as a chip on the right.

Each row shows the user's name, email, role chip and a pencil (edit) and trash (remove) icon.

Changing a role

Hover the row of the member you want to change. Click the pencil icon to open the edit dialog. Pick a new role from the dropdown — Owner, Admin or Member — and confirm.

Promoting to Owner moves billing and workspace-deletion rights too; keep the count low.

Role changes take effect immediately. The affected user might need to refresh the page to see the new permissions.

Removing a member

In the same row, click the trash icon. bont asks for confirmation since removal is irreversible from the UI — it ends the user's access immediately and they vanish from the Members list.

  • The user's historical activity (notes, deals, emails) stays attached to them; deletion removes access, not authorship.
  • If the user later needs back in, send a fresh invite — see Inviting teammates.

Roles cheat-sheet

  • Owner — billing, workspace deletion, all settings, all members, all app data.
  • Admin — settings and members, full app data access; no billing.
  • Member — app data access only; no settings or member-management rights.

Troubleshooting

I can't remove an Owner

Owners are protected from being removed by anyone except other Owners. Demote them to Admin first, then remove. The very last Owner is always pinned — promote someone else first, then drop the outgoing Owner.

The "Remove" icon is missing on my row

You can't remove yourself. Ask another Owner or Admin to remove you, or transfer ownership and leave.

The user can still see the workspace

Their browser might be holding a cached session. Removal takes effect within seconds on the server; refreshing the page kicks them out.
