Access for other users

The Access tab in the server's control panel lets you invite another user to manage this server: console, start and stop, settings.

How to grant access

  1. Open the server's control panel → the Access tab.
  2. Enter the user's email.
  3. Confirm.

The user appears in the list and can manage the server. In their own dashboard your project shows up as a card marked "Server access" — with only the servers you let them into; the project's other services stay invisible to them. They get the console, start/stop, cron and SFTP; renting, extending, renaming or deleting services, changing settings or the port, and granting access are not theirs.

Requirements

The invitee needs a sourhost account, and their email must be confirmed. Possible messages:

MessageWhat to do
"No user with that email"Ask them to sign up and try again.
"This user hasn't confirmed their account yet"They need to enter the code from the sign-up email.
"This user has no account in the game panel yet"The panel account is created when the email is confirmed; for older accounts, on the first sign-in. Have them sign in once and try again.

How to revoke access

Click the bin icon next to the user in the list — the rights are revoked immediately.

If someone should manage all services and see them in their own dashboard — grant project access. If only one server — use this tab.
