Collaboration
Inviting team members, managing roles, and collaborating within a Team organization in Vertex.
Team organizations in Vertex allow multiple users to work together on cases, share documents, and manage workloads. This page covers how to invite members and collaborate within your organization.
Collaboration features are only available in Team organizations. Personal organizations are single-user workspaces and do not support inviting members.
Inviting Members
After creating a Team organization, you can invite colleagues by email. The invite flow is available during organization setup and from the admin panel at any time.
How to Invite
- Navigate to Admin → Users in the sidebar, or use the invite page after creating a new Team organization
- Enter the email address of the person you want to invite
- Select a role — Member, Billing, Admin, or Guest
- Click Add Member to add them to the invite list
- Review your list and click Send Invitations
You can add multiple people at once before sending. Each person receives an email invitation to join your organization.
Invite Roles
When inviting, you assign an initial organization role:
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Admin | Manage team, settings, and all cases |
| Billing | View members and billing information |
| Member | Create and work on assigned cases |
| Guest | View-only access to assigned cases |
Roles can be changed later by an Admin or Owner from the member management page.
The Owner role cannot be assigned through invitations — it is reserved for the user who created the organization.
Personal vs Team Organizations
Not all organizations support collaboration. Here's how they differ:
| Personal | Team | |
|---|---|---|
| Members | 1 (owner only) | 2–20+ depending on plan |
| Invitations | Not available | Available |
| Shared cases | No | Yes |
| Role-based access | No | Yes |
| File sharing | No | Yes |
If you're on a Personal organization and need to collaborate, you can create a new Team organization and invite your colleagues there.
Managing Members
Once members have joined, Admins and Owners can manage the team from Admin → Users:
- View all members — see everyone with their current role
- Change roles — promote or demote members as needed
- Remove members — revoke access immediately
What Happens When a Member Is Removed
- All their case assignments and bookmarks are deleted
- File access they held is transferred to the admin who removed them
- They lose access to the organization immediately
Plan Limits
Each Team plan has a maximum number of members:
| Plan | Members |
|---|---|
| Starter | Up to 5 |
| Pro | Up to 20 |
| Enterprise | Unlimited |
All plans are free during the beta period. Member limits still apply.
