# Edit a member's role and permissions

> Update the name or access role of any existing member in your BluBash workspace. Role changes take effect immediately. Only administrators can do this.

You can update a member's name or role at any time from the Members page. Role changes take effect immediately, so the member will notice the difference as soon as they next interact with the platform.

<Note>
  Only administrators can edit member details and roles.
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Locate the member">
    Open **Members** in the left-hand menu. Use the search bar to find the person by name, email, or role.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click the edit icon">
    Select the pencil icon on the member's row.

    <Info>
      If you click the edit icon on your own user, you will be redirected to your profile page to update your personal details.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Update the details">
    Edit the **Name** and/or **Role** (Administrator, Manager, or Member), then confirm to save.

    <Warning>
      Changing a role expands or restricts the member's permissions immediately. Confirm with your team before making critical changes.

## Quick tips

* Promote someone to **Manager** if they need to monitor teams and reports, but should not access account-level settings.
* Keep the number of **Administrators** to a minimum to protect your workspace.
