User Management

Overview

User management in Locize allows you to invite and manage team members with fine-grained permissions for each project. You can control access by version, language, or feature, ensuring everyone has the right level of access.

Watch the user management video as part of our showcase/demo.

Inviting Users

On your project settings page, under the USERS tab, you can:

Invite team members to a specific project
Assign permissions for specific versions, languages, or features
Adapt permissions at any time (admin role required)
Create anonymous invitation links with predefined permissions to share with others

Role Permissions

Each user can be assigned one of the following roles:

Admin: Full access to all features and settings, including billing and user management.
Accountant: Responsible for billing and accounting tasks only.
Manager: All permissions except billing/accounting. Can be scoped to specific versions, languages, or namespaces.
User: Can work on translations. Can be scoped to specific versions, languages, or namespaces.
Publisher: Like the user role, but can also publish or overwrite versions. Overwriting requires permission to all languages and namespaces.

Note:

Scoping a permission to specific languages (excluding the reference language) removes the ability to add or remove keys.

Only admins (and partially managers) can change team permissions at any time.

SAML Single Sign-On (SSO)

You can enable SAML SSO to allow users to access Locize through your chosen identity provider (IDP).

Setup steps:

Upload your IDP's metadata file.
Optionally define user attribute mappings.
Enter the appropriate IDP endpoints.

Once configured, your users can log in via:

https://www.locize.com/login/{identifier}

Important:

SAML SSO integration will increase your monthly costs.

SSO users cannot use the InContext popup approach.

You must still invite individual users to your project(s). SSO users do not automatically receive project permissions.
