A team is the container that owns your QRtub data. Collections, Items, Links, reserved numbered patterns, page templates, print batches and Media all belong to a team, not to a person — which is why two people on the same team see exactly the same Collections and the same pool of Links. Every team also holds its own member list and its own subscription. Nothing is shared between two teams: a Link created in one team cannot be assigned to an Item in another, and a plan bought for one team does not cover the other.

Where your team came from

Most teams are created one of three ways:
  • Automatically, at signup. Creating a QRtub account creates a team named after your email address — jane's Team for jane@example.com — with you as its owner.
  • By you, deliberately. Use Create Team in the team switcher at the top of the left sidebar. See Creating a Team.
  • By someone inviting you. If you signed up by clicking a team invitation, no personal team is created for you at all. You land straight in the team that invited you.
You can belong to as many teams as you are invited to, and switch between them at any time. Only memberships you have actually accepted count — see Switching Between Teams.

What only the owner can do

Every team has exactly one owner: the person recorded as its owner, which starts out as whoever created it. The owner is the only member who can change the team’s name, slug or logo, invite or remove members, manage pending invitations, see the Subscription section, or delete a Collection or an Item. Everything else — creating Collections and Items, editing fields, creating, editing and deleting Links, building Pages, running print batches, importing and exporting CSVs — every member can do. Details in Team Roles.

The Team page

Open Team in the left sidebar. The header shows the team’s logo, name, slug and member count, with an Edit button for the owner. Below it, four tiles: Members (accepted members), Pending (invitations sent to people without a QRtub account), Owners and the date the team was created. Then the members table — People with access, Last Seen, Status and Access — followed by a Danger Zone with the Leave Team button. One thing worth knowing about that table: the Last Seen column does not track activity. It shows when the person joined the team, or when they were invited if they have not joined yet. Nobody’s last sign-in or last edit is recorded anywhere in QRtub.
