    Tip

    Add up to 20 users with the same Member role at a time by comma-separating email addresses.

  7. Select the Member role to be applied to the new user(s). See Roles.

  8. Click the Groups tab.

    safe_web_invite_user_groups
  9. From the Select groups drop-down, select the groups to which the member(s) should belong.

    Selected groups will appear listed under Groups.

  10. Click the Collections tab.

    safe_web_invite_user_collections

    OR

  12. Click Save to invite the users to the selected Team.

    safe_web_invite_user_invited

Note

The users will receive an email invitation allowing them to join the Team. Once they have accepted the invitation by clicking Join Team Now and creating and/or logging in to their Bravura Safe account, you will then have to confirm their membership before they can access the Team and its collections and items.

A member's role determines what they can do in Bravura Safe.

Note

The role does not determine which collections a member can access (see Permissions).

Table 1. Safe Team member role definitions

Role

Custom

Customized permissions per user from a configurable selection of Manager and Admin capabilities.



Permissions determine what a member can do with the shared items in a particular collection, and can be assigned at the group or member level. Groups and members can have different permissions for the same collection.

Table 2. Team / Group Collection permissions

Permission

Description

Can view

The user or group can view all items in the collection, including hidden fields like passwords.

Can view, except passwords

The user or group can view all items in the collection except hidden fields like passwords.

Users may still use passwords via auto-fill.

Can edit

The user or group can add new items, remove existing items and edit existing items in the collection, including hidden fields like passwords.

Can edit, except passwords

The user or group can add new items, remove existing items and edit existing items in the collection, except hidden fields like passwords.

Users may still use passwords via auto-fill.

Grant access to all current and future collections

The user or group has full (Can edit) access to items in all existing collections and to any collections created in the future.



Note

Hiding passwords prevents easy copy and paste; however, it does not completely prevent user access to this information. Treat hidden passwords as you would any shared credential.

  • Uncheck Grant access to all current and future collections for Admin and Owner roles, as they can automatically access all collections from the Team safe.

  • Configuring access control will determine which collections are readily accessible in their individual safe and via Bravura Safe client applications (browser extension, mobile, etc.).

  • Admins and owners will still be able to access "unassigned" collections from the organization vault.

Users invited to an enterprise or regular Team receive an email from Bravura Safe inviting them to join the Team. Clicking the "Join..." button in the email opens a Bravura Safe invitation window in their web browser, allowing them to create a new Bravura Safe account or log in with an existing account. Logging in accepts the invitation.

Note

Users are first invited to the enterprise (global) Team, then to regular (departmental) Teams. See Set up your Bravura Safe account for more information.

Note

If you already have a Bravura Safe account and the enterprise Team administrator implements a member 2FA policy and you do not yet have two-step login enabled (e.g. you have turned off the default second factor using email verification), you will not be able to access the Team until two-step login is enabled for your account. See Two-step login (2FA) .

Once a user has accepted an invitation to join a Team, the Team's admin or owner must confirm their membership to complete the process. An email notification is generated.

safe_web_confirm_member_email

To confirm accepted invitations:

  1. Log in to Bravura Safe via the web interface.

  2. Click Teams and select your team from the Team drop-down.

  3. Click the Members tab.

    The All filter at the top of the Members list is selected by default.

    • Users with the Needs confirmation label next to their name have accepted your invitation to the Team and are waiting for you to confirm their membership.

    • Users with the Invited label next to their name need to accept the invitation to the Team.

    • Users with the Revoked label next to their name still have a Bravura Safe account, but their access to the Team has been revoked. These users can only be viewed by selecting the Revoked filter.

    • Users with no label next to their name are confirmed members of the Team.

  4. Click the Needs confirmation filter.

    safe_web_confirm_member
  5. Click the corresponding gear drop-down and select Confirm.

    Note

    To confirm multiple members at once, select their checkboxes (or select All at the top), click the uppermost gear drop-down and select Confirm.

    A message appears indicating that the user has been confirmed and the Needs confirmation label disappears from their name in the list. The member(s) can now access the Team, collections and items using the permissions specified when they were invited.
