Overview

Larafast Multi-Tenancy includes a built-in team member management interface. Team owners can view all members, invite new ones, and manage existing memberships - all through the pre-built UI.

Viewing Team Members

The team members interface is already available in your application:
  • Navigation: Click “Users” or “Team Members” in the sidebar
  • Location: app/Filament/App/Resources/UserResource.php
  • Access: All team members can view the list

What You’ll See

The team members table displays:
  • Name - Member’s full name
  • Email - Email address (with copy button)
  • Owner Badge - Shows who owns the team
  • Join Date - When the member joined
  • Actions - Remove member button (for owners only)
The list automatically shows only members of your current team. When you switch teams, the member list updates automatically.

Adding New Members

To add someone to your team, you use the invitation system (already built-in):
  1. Click “Invite Member” button at the top of the members page
  2. Enter their email and select their role
  3. Send invitation - They receive an email with an invitation link
  4. They accept - Once they click the link and accept, they’re automatically added to your team
See Sending Invitations for details on how the invitation system works.

Removing Members

Team owners can remove members from the team:
  1. Find the member in the team members list
  2. Click the trash icon next to their name
  3. Confirm removal in the dialog
  4. Member removed - They lose access to the team immediately
Important Notes:
  • ✅ Only team owners can remove members
  • ❌ You cannot remove the team owner
  • ✅ Removed members can be re-invited if needed
  • ✅ Removing a member doesn’t delete their user account

Team Ownership

Who is the Owner?

The team owner is the user who created the team. Owners have special privileges:
  • Can invite and remove members
  • Can edit team settings
  • Can delete the team
  • Cannot be removed from the team
In the members list, the owner is clearly marked with an “Owner” badge.

Transferring Ownership

If you need to transfer team ownership to another member, this can be done through the admin panel or by customizing the team settings page. Location: Admin Panel → Teams → Select Team → Change Owner

Member Roles

When inviting members, you can assign roles that determine their permissions:
  • Admin - Full access to manage the team
  • Editor - Can create and edit content
  • Viewer - Read-only access
Roles are managed through Laravel’s Spatie Permission package, which is already integrated into the application.

Team Switcher

Members who belong to multiple teams can easily switch between them:
  1. Click the team name in the top navigation bar
  2. Select a different team from the dropdown
  3. Automatic switch - The interface updates to show the new team’s data
This feature is built-in and requires no configuration.

Viewing Member Activity

The system tracks when members join teams and can log member activities using the built-in activity log feature. To see team activities:
  • Location: Admin Panel → Activity Logs
  • Filter: By team or user
  • Shows: Invitations sent, members added/removed, team changes

Customization

Customizing the Members Table

If you want to show additional information about members (e.g., their role, last login), you can customize the UserResource: Location: app/Filament/App/Resources/UserResource.php The table uses Filament’s table builder, so you can add columns, filters, and actions easily.

Adding Member Permissions

To control what members can do based on their role, you can use policies and gates: Location: app/Policies/TeamPolicy.php The policy system is already set up with Laravel’s authorization features.
