Organization Users

The Users section displays all users in the Organization. It also lets you add and manage users in the Organization.

Additional Resource: Another way of managing users is through your stack. Check out our Invite Users and Assign Roles guide set for more information.

This section also covers the following actions that you can perform on Organization users:

  • Invite New User to Your Organization: Invite new users to your organization and assign organization role and/or stack-specific role(s) to them
  • Change Organization Role of Existing User: Change the assigned organization role and/or stack-specific role(s) of a user
  • Remove User from Your Organization: Remove an existing user from your organization

Let's look at these actions in detail.

Warning: Once a user is removed from an Organization, he/she will lose access to all stacks contained in it.

Export Users List

Contentstack allows you to export details of all the users from the organization user list page in the form of a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file. The users are sorted alphabetically by their email address in CSV. You can open this CSV file using any spreadsheet application to clearly view the exported user details.

With this option, you no longer need to constantly scroll down long organization user lists to view other users in your organization.

To export the users’ list, log in to your Contentstack account, and perform the following steps:

  1. Go to Organization Settings.
  2. Select Users tab from the left navigation pane.
  3. Click the Export button in the top-right corner of the Users list page to export all the user details from the list in a CSV file.
