Overview

Teams let other people work on your servers without sharing your password. Each person signs in with their own account, and a role decides what they can do in your team. Everything they do is recorded in the team’s audit log under their own name. You can manage members from the “Teams” section of the Ascienth console at https://vps.advinservers.com.
The person you invite must already have an account with us, either on the client area at https://clients.advinservers.com or on the Ascienth console. They do not need to have signed in to the console before.
To invite people or write roles, you must own the team or hold a role with the Manage the team permission.

Built-in Roles

Every team starts with three roles. They cannot be edited or deleted, but you can give them to anyone. If none of these fit, create a custom role first.

Create the role

Click Create role. Name the role after the job it is for, and add a short description if you like.Tick each permission the role should have. Anything left unticked is refused.
