In Mixpanel, there are two main ways to manage user access: through Teams and through direct Project invitations. Here's how they differ:

Teams are groups of users who share the same permissions across projects. This makes it easier to manage access for multiple users at once.When you invite users to a Team: - All team members receive identical roles and permissions - Teams are created at the organization level - Any changes to team permissions affect all members simultaneouslyTo create and manage teams: 1. Go to "Organization Settings" → "Users & Teams" → "Teams" tab 2. Click "Create Team" and provide a team name 3. Add users to the team by clicking "Add Users" 4. Grant project access to the team by clicking "Add Projects"Roles & Permissions: Teams provides detailed instructions on team management.

Project invitations grant access to specific projects on an individual basis: - Users can have different roles across different projects - Permissions are managed at the project level - Changes to permissions only affect individual usersTo invite users directly to a project: 1. Go to "Project Settings" → "Project Users" 2. Click "Invite Users" 3. Select existing organization users or enter new email addresses 4. Assign specific project roles to each userYou can also set a default role for "All Users in the Organization" to give everyone baseline access to a project.Roles & Permissions: Invite Users to a Project provides more details on this process.

The main difference is in management efficiency: - Teams provide centralized permission management for groups of users - Project invitations offer more granular control on a per-user basisNote that users must first be part of your Mixpanel Organization (either through self-joining or invitation) before they can be added to teams or projects.
