Permission levels for an organization

After you create an organization, you should give Owner permissions to a small group of people who will manage the organization account.

Organization members can have owner, billing manager, or member roles:

Owners have complete administrative access to your organization. This role should be limited to a few people in your organization. For more information, see "Changing a person's role to owner."
Billing managers allow a person to manage billing settings. For more information, see "Adding a billing manager to your organization".
Members are the default role for everyone else.

Outside collaborators

To keep your organization data secure while allowing access to repositories, you can add outside collaborators. An outside collaborator is a person who has access to one or more organization repositories but is not explicitly a member of the organization, such as a consultant or temporary employee.
