# Organization Settings: Teams

![Management Teams tab with a Team Name and Description table, search box, and Invite and New Team buttons](/images/docs/os/organization-settings/organization_settings_management_teams.webp)

## Overview

The Teams tab manages shareable sets of users. As the on-screen description says: "A team is a curated set of users that you can share with others — e.g., grant another user permission to view the team's analytics or send notifications to them."

Where Groups exist purely for RBAC policy assignment, Teams are audience-facing: a team is something you monitor and act on. Typical uses are giving a manager or instructor visibility into their team's analytics, or targeting a notification to a defined cohort.

To reach it, switch the top-bar toggle to **Admin**, open the settings dialog, choose **Management**, and select the **Teams** tab (alongside Users, Groups, Roles, Policies, and Alerts).

## Target Audience
**Administrator**

## Fields and Controls

#### Search teams
A search box that filters the team list by name as you type.

#### Invite
Opens the user invite dialog so you can bring new people into the organization directly from this tab — by single email or CSV bulk upload. Useful when assembling a team whose members don't have accounts yet.

#### New Team
Opens the New Team dialog with a **Team Name** field (required), a **Description** field, and a **Team Members** section where you type to search existing users and add them. Members are listed with name and email and can be removed before saving.

#### Team Name column
The team's display name.

#### Description column
An optional description of the team's purpose.

#### Empty state
When no teams exist yet, the table shows "No teams found."

#### Row actions
Each team row provides edit and delete actions like the Groups tab, plus a share action (permission-gated) that lets you share the team with another user — granting them the ability to view the team's analytics or send notifications to its members.

## How to Use

#### Step 1: Open the Teams tab
In **Admin** mode, open the settings dialog, click **Management**, and select **Teams**.

#### Step 2: Create a team
Click **New Team**, name it, add a description, and search-and-add its members. Save the dialog and the team appears in the table.

#### Step 3: Invite missing members
If someone isn't in the organization yet, click **Invite** to send them an email invitation (individually or via CSV), then add them to the team once their account exists.

#### Step 4: Share the team
Use the share action on the team's row to grant another user access to the team — for example, so a supervisor can view the team's analytics or send notifications to it.

#### Step 5: Keep it current
Edit the team to adjust membership over time, or delete it when the cohort is no longer needed.
