@juliatetrud As an Admin shouldn’t I have the ability to “Manage Roles” on any collection within our Team? Right now there is a collection that I didn’t create that is locked, but when I go to Manage Roles it says I don’t have permissions.

Thanks,
Mick

Hi again @mick-mcbride - So I was incorrect about that. It seems that this is actually not a bug. Apparently team admins can only manage team-wide roles, i.e. assign other admins, billing users, and developers, but they don’t have access to every single collection. The owner of the collection or any team member who has editor access on the collection will have to assign you the editor role for the collection to allow you to manage it. Sorry for the initial mistake!

That seems like something a team admin should have the rights to do.

Thanks,

@mick-mcbride - This functionality is something we’ve discussed, but didn’t make it into the initial release of role-based access control. We’ve seen this requested from a number of our users since releasing v7, and we’re now looking at how best to add it to Postman in a future release.
