Role-based access
Control access to CodeRabbit administrative features by assigning Admin, Member, or Billing Admin roles to organization users.
Control access to CodeRabbit administrative features through role-based permissions. Assign appropriate roles to team members based on their administrative responsibilities.
For complete administrative functions by role, see Role permissions.
You can modify roles after initial assignment if you have Admin privileges.
The main table shows Admin and Member accounts with their current roles. Click the Billing Admins tab to view billing administrators.
You can only assign Admin and Member roles through this method. Billing Admin requires a separate invitation process.
The invited user will receive an email to complete setup. Their account appears under the Billing Admins tab after activation.
Overview of CodeRabbit roles
Every CodeRabbit account has exactly one role per organization. Each role determines access to billing, account management, and administrative functions.Admin
Full read/write access to all administrative features. Can manage other users’ roles.
Member
Read-only access to limited administrative settings. Appropriate for most developers.
Billing Admin
Read/write access to subscription and billing management. Limited other administrative access.
CodeRabbit roles are independent from Git platform roles (GitHub, GitLab, etc.). Changing a CodeRabbit role doesn’t affect Git platform permissions, and vice versa.
Roles only affect administrative features. All users can access developer features like code reviews based on their seat assignments, regardless of role.
Default roles
CodeRabbit automatically assigns default roles based on Git platform permissions:Admin (default)
Users with ownership-level Git platform roles (GitHub Admin, Bitbucket Owner) receive the Admin role
Member (default)
All other users receive the Member role by default
Default assignments happen only during initial account setup. Subsequent Git platform changes don’t affect CodeRabbit roles.
