Idea

Add full user management capabilities - add, modify, remove of viewers, contributors and members - to role workspace member.


Why?

It is logically inconsistent that a workspace member currently is allowed to add users but not allowed to remove or to modify them.

RE: User Access Management for Workspace Member Role

I know the background to this request and if it was possible I would down vote it. This request comes from Tenant Admins that are trying to manage access to each workspace in the tenant. The process obviously does not work as this is too granular for tenant admins to manage. Workspaces should be managed by what is often referred to Citizen Developers, not IT. There is a reason there are Tenant Admins and Workspace Admins.Please review the documentation regarding the different capabilities each workspace role has. You will see there is little difference between workspace Admin and workspace Member. One KEY difference is the ability to remove users from a workspace. I agree it is inconsistent that members can add and not remove users, but for consistency then members should not be able to add other users to the workspace, as opposed to being able to delete them too.

RE: User Access Management for Workspace Member Role

Just having a workspace that makes it simple to manage users access would be nice, the current way is too complex for what it needs to be.

Very important to manage the roles in adequate time to mitigate the data accessibility risk.
