Collaboration

Drivebase collaboration is workspace-based. Members are added to a workspace with a role, and that role controls what they can do.

Workspace Roles

Drivebase supports four workspace roles:

• Owner
• Admin
• Editor
• Viewer

Current permission behavior:

• Owner/Admin: can manage workspace members and providers.
• Owner/Admin/Editor: can create, update, and delete files.
• Viewer: read-only access to files.

Inviting Teammates

In Settings → Users, owners and admins can generate invite links with:

• A preset role (admin, editor, or viewer).
• An expiration window.

Invite rules enforced by the backend:

• owner cannot be assigned through invites.
• Invite expiration must be between 1 and 30 days.
• Invite links can be accepted once and can be revoked.

Managing Members

In the same Users settings section, owners and admins can:

• View all workspace members.
• Change member roles (except the owner role).
• Remove members from the workspace.

When an invite is accepted, Drivebase creates or updates that user’s workspace membership for the target workspace.

Collaboration Data Model

Collaboration state is stored with:

• workspace_memberships: links users to workspaces with a role.
• workspace_invites: invite token, role, inviter, expiration, and acceptance/revocation state.

Each user can have only one membership per workspace (workspace_id + user_id is unique).
