## User Management overview

Key areas of the User Management page.

| Section | Description |
| --- | --- |
| User table | A list of all users with columns for **First Name**, **Last Name**, **Email**, and **Role**, plus a delete action per row. |
| Roles | The role assigned to each user (**Admin**, **Operations**, **Practitioner**, or **Stakeholder**), which governs their access and permissions across the platform. For what each role can do, see [Manage Roles](/docs/cbp/getting-started/manage-organizations-users-roles/roles/). |
| Add User | A button to invite a new user and assign them a role. |
| Search | A search field to filter the user list by name or email. |

## Add a user

1. Select **Add User**.
1. In the dialog, enter the user's **Email**.
1. Choose a **Role**. The role defaults to **Stakeholder**.
1. Confirm the dialog to add the user.

If the person does not have a CloudBolt account yet, CloudBolt automatically sends them an email invitation. Until they accept it and sign in, their row shows an **Invited** badge and their role cannot be changed. For the invitation-acceptance steps from the new user's side, see [Manage users](/docs/cbp/getting-started/manage-organizations-users-roles/users/).
</div>


## Change a user's role

Change a user's role inline using the **Role** dropdown in their row. The dropdown becomes available once the user has signed in. Users managed by an external enterprise identity provider show a read-only role that cannot be changed here.

## Remove a user

Select the trash icon in the user's row, then confirm the "Confirm removal of user…" prompt. Removal takes effect immediately; there is no separate deactivate option.
