# Team

> Invite teammates to your Vern account, and understand what each role can do.

Vern accounts are shared across your team. Add anyone who needs to manage customers, run imports, or configure templates.

## Invite a teammate

Go to **Settings → Team** and click **Invite**. Enter their email and pick a role.

They receive an email containing a **one-time invite link**. Opening it lets them
set their own password and join your account. Once they're in, they can see your
companies, templates, sources, and workbooks — subject to their role.

<Note>
  Invite links expire after **72 hours** and can be used **once**. If one lapses
  or has already been used, send a fresh invite — the old link can't be revived.
  Vern never emails a password.
</Note>

## Roles

Two roles. The difference is about **account-level control and data leaving
Vern** — not about who can do day-to-day import work.

<ResponseField name="Admin" type="role">
  Everything a Member can do, plus:

  * Invite and remove teammates
  * Manage billing
  * Configure [data retention](/help-center/settings/data-retention)
  * Create and revoke [API keys](/help-center/settings/api-keys)
  * **Export data** — downloading a sheet or workbook as CSV/ZIP
  * Configure source credentials and [API writers](/help-center/send/write-to-an-api)
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="Member" type="role">
  Full access to the day-to-day work: open companies, upload files, run imports,
  review and fix flagged rows, edit templates.

  Members **cannot** export data, manage API keys, or configure credentials.
  Attempting one of those returns a permission error rather than failing
  silently.
</ResponseField>

<Warning>
  Export is Admin-only deliberately: it materialises a customer's entire dataset
  into a file that leaves Vern, so it belongs with billing and API keys rather
  than with import work. If teammates who used to export now can't, this is why —
  make them Admins, or have an Admin run the export.
</Warning>

## Remove a teammate

Open their row's menu and click **Remove**. Their session ends immediately. Anything they created stays in your account — work isn't tied to one person.

## Next

* [API keys](/help-center/settings/api-keys) — for programmatic access from your backend.
* [Data retention](/help-center/settings/data-retention) — control how long workbook data sticks around.
