Enabling RBAC for New and Existing Organizations

RBAC is enabled for all Organizations.

Pre-defined teams are created and granted common roles when RBAC is enabled. These teams include Organization Owners, Organization Billing Administrators, Organization User Administrators, Organization Operators, Organization Writers, and Organization Readers.

For new organizations, the initial users will be added to the Organization Owners team, which grants full access to all user actions. For existing organizations, users will be added to the Organization Owners teams, allowing those users continued access to any user actions. Any user in the Organization Owners team can reassign other users in the team to different teams to limit their access.

New users can be invited to join any team(s). Inviting a new user to join the Organization Owners team immediately grants them access to all resources in the organization. Inviting a new user without specifying a team adds them to the default members team, which makes them a member of the organization, but grants no specific access beyond the ability to login to the portal and navigate to the options available.

When users are added to an organization or a workspace group, synchronization takes place in the engine and they are added to the corresponding user groups in the backend.
