Modem uses organizations as workspaces. Each organization has its own integrations, data, and team members. Most teams have one organization, but you can create multiple for separate products or business units.

Roles

Modem has three roles:
RolePermissions
OwnerFull control. Can delete the organization, manage domain settings, and do everything admins can.
AdminCan invite and remove members, update organization settings, and manage auto-join. Cannot delete the organization.
MemberCan view all data and use all features (search, agent, topics). Cannot invite members or change settings.
Every organization must have at least one owner.

Inviting Members

Admins and owners can invite new members:
  1. Go to Settings > Team
  2. Click Add Members
  3. Enter one or more email addresses
  4. Select a role (Member, Admin, or Owner)
  5. Click Send Invitations
Invited users receive an email with a link to join. Invitations expire after a set period. You can cancel pending invitations from the same page.

Auto-Join

Auto-join lets people join your organization without a manual invitation. There are three options, all configured in Settings.

Email Domain

Set your company’s email domain (e.g. acme.com) and enable auto-join. Anyone who signs up with a matching email address is automatically added as a member.
Free email domains (gmail.com, outlook.com, etc.) cannot be used for auto-join. Only owners can change the domain setting.

Slack Workspace

Enabled by default when you connect Slack. Members of your Slack workspace can join your Modem organization by linking their Slack account.

GitHub Organization

When you connect a GitHub organization, you can enable GitHub auto-join. Members of your GitHub organization are automatically added when they link their GitHub account.

Removing Members

Admins and owners can remove members from Settings > Team. Removed members immediately lose access. Their historical actions are preserved for audit purposes.
You cannot remove yourself if you’re the last owner. Add another owner first.

Switching Organizations

If you belong to multiple organizations, use the organization switcher in the sidebar. Each organization is completely separate: data, integrations, and settings don’t overlap.
