The purpose of this guide is to help Space Owners manage their team within Kumospace once their space is created. If you have not yet set up your office, please first read our Getting Started Guide.
In Kumospace, the owner is the creator of the space. The owner can promote team members to different User Roles, giving them elevated permissions to manage the space and other participants.
Once your space is created, we recommend Assigning User Roles to help you manage your office.
Learn more about user roles and their permissions here.
Open the People menu.
Click the three dots “...” next to the person’s name.
