Assign the administrator role to a member

As an administrator, you can assign the administrator role to another member of your organization. For example, if you plan to leave the organization and you are the only administrator, you must designate another administrator to help ensure that the organization continues to function.

To protect your organization and its Puppet estate, assign the administrator role only to people whom you know and trust. Remember:
  • Administrators can add members to and remove members from the organization.
  • Administrators can change member roles.

  • Administrators can link the Forge organization to a Perforce customer account to allow access to premium modules.

  • Administrators can remove other administrators from the organization.

To assign the administrator role to a member, complete the following steps:

1. Log in to Puppet Forge by clicking Log in at the upper right and following the prompts.

2. At the upper right, click your username to display the menu and click the organization in which you want to assign the administrator role.

3. To view a list of members, in the left navigation pane, under the organization’s name, click Members.

4. In the Actions column, click Member settings .
The user’s profile details are displayed.

5. Under Role, select Admin.

6. Click Update.

7. To confirm your selection, click Grant admin rights.

The organization’s administrators receive a notification about the newly assigned administrator role.
