Team & brand
Let people from your organisation help run it, each with exactly the permissions they need, and make SyncGaze look like your company.
Team members come from mailboxes
Every mailbox in your organisation is listed under Team. There's no separate invite: create the mailbox in Mailboxes, then choose Edit access on the person.
- Dashboard permissions: a checkbox for each thing they may do, grouped as Mailboxes, Security & compliance, Domains, Team, Billing, Logs & reports, Settings and Support. With none ticked they don't see the dashboard at all.
- Apps: switch Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Docs, Sheets and Forms on or off for that person.
- Menu items they can't open are hidden; opening a page directly shows “You don't have permission”.
The organisation accountThe account you signed up with manages the organisation on the dashboard (domains, mailboxes, billing). It doesn't use Forms, Docs or Sheets: people use those from their own mailbox. Opening Forms with it shows a page with Go to dashboard and Switch account.
Deleting a mailbox removes the person everywhere: Team, aliases, groups, routing and reports, unless a legal hold keeps it.
- Open Team. Use the filter to show everyone, people with dashboard access, or mail-only people.
- Click Edit access on the person.
- Switch apps on or off, and tick the dashboard permissions they need (or Full dashboard access).
- Click Save. Dashboard changes apply immediately; app changes within 15 minutes.
