Managing Teams

Teams are collections of individual users or other teams. They access TIBCO Control Plane resources and capabilities based on permissions. You create a team within your organization. Assign existing individual users or other teams to this new team. After team creation, you assign or update permissions for that team.

Before you begin
  • You must have Team Admin permission to manage teams and team permissions.

  • The user must be a member of the same subscription to view and select available teams during the team creation process.

Additional Information

  • Membership: Any team can include existing users from the organization.

  • Hierarchical Structure: Teams can be nested. They must not create circular dependencies; a team cannot include another team that ultimately includes the first team.

  • Depth Limit: Team hierarchy is restricted to a maximum of 5 levels (generations).

  • Update Propagation: Changes to team members or permissions may take up to 5 minutes to become effective for users who are currently signed in. Affected users must re-issue any manually-generated access tokens. These tokens will refer to the old permissions assigned at the time the access token(s) were generated.
