# Roles & permissions

> Four roles, what each can do.

BuildPixel ships four roles. They cover most teams.

| Role       | Can do                                                          |
| ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **owner**  | Everything, including billing and deleting the org              |
| **admin**  | Everything except billing changes and deleting the org          |
| **member** | Create projects, edit build settings, trigger builds, view logs |
| **viewer** | View projects, builds, logs (read-only). Cannot trigger builds. |

## Changing a member's role

Go to **Settings → Members**, click the member, change the role dropdown, save.

You can also change roles via the API — see [Organizations endpoints](/api-reference/endpoints/organizations).

## At least one owner

You can't have an org with zero owners. To downgrade the only owner, first promote someone else to owner.

## What can a viewer do?

Surprisingly useful for stakeholders who want progress visibility without the risk of breaking anything:

* See all projects in the org
* View build history, including failed builds
* Watch live build logs
* Download artifacts (the artifact is "the build", not a privileged resource)

A viewer can't trigger anything, edit anything, or invite anyone. Good fit for product managers, exec stakeholders, or external observers.
