Who should be an Admin?

Consider who will be responsible for administrative tasks in your account such as adding or removing users or creating and managing vault access? Depending on your organisation, this could be an individual (e.g. the business owner or IT admin), a team (the IT team) or it could be a shared responsibility across multiple teams.

If you are using the Teams plan, in order for a user to have any of the below permissions they must be part of the Administrators group. Be advised that on a Teams plan you are not able to customize which permissions an Administrator has.

With 1Password Business you can create custom groups to assign administrative permissions following the Principle of Least Privilege.
