Managing Team Members and Users

Edited

This page is only visible to Admins of Team Edition accounts.

Inviting Team Members

  1. Navigate to the Users tab in Settings.

  2. Click on the Invite Team Members button:

  1. Enter the email address(es) you'd like to invite to your Team in Fathom. Be sure to hit Enter after each address:

  1. You can set the membership status (paid/free/admin) and the team for the new member.

  2. Click "Send Invites"!

When you invite someone to join your workspace:

  • They’ll appear under a new “Invitees” tab next to “Users”

  • They’ll receive an email invitation so they can get started with setting up their account

Once they accept, they’ll be moved into the active Users list.

Managing Team Member Roles and Access

To the right of a team member’s name, you’ll find a settings menu where you can manage their access and role.

From here, you can:

  • Assign them to a sub-team

  • Upgrade or downgrade their access level (Admin or Standard)

    • Moving team members to free seats is only available to our legacy plan (Standard and Pro).

  • Deactivate or remove them from the team

  • Change their role to or from Admin

🗒️ Note: Admins will always occupy a paid seat.

Additional capabilities for Team Admins with Standard access

When a team admin has Standard access, they now have expanded controls on calls that are shared with them.

Note: Standard access is the default level automatically granted when your settings share calls with specific teams or All Teams.

Visibility on teammates’ calls

Team admins can update external recording visibility on calls owned by other team members.

When viewing a teammate’s call, a team admin can adjust who outside the organization can view the recording, even if this overrides the default organization or team settings.

Elevated permissions on teammates’ calls

Team admins now automatically receive admin-level permissions on calls where they have Standard access. Previously, these elevated permissions only applied when admins were explicitly granted Admin access on a call.

When calls are automatically shared with team admins based on organization/team visibility settings (which grants Standard access by default), team admins can now:

  • Share the call and manage share links

  • Edit call details (title, description, etc.)

  • Sync the call to your CRM

  • Adjust team visibility settings

  • Manage notes and assign action items

Removing vs. Deactivating Team Members

  • Removing a team member:
    They will be removed from your team instantly. Any shared recordings will also be removed and will no longer be accessible to others.

  • Deactivating a team member:
    They will no longer be able to log in to Fathom, but all of their recordings will remain accessible to your team. Deactivated users will also appear in a separate tab next to Invitees.
