How to add new users to the Magento Cloud panel

The Magento Cloud panel offers very easy control over the Magento 2 Commerce project. You might be able to control your users, environments, and general configurations easily. In case you can’t find the control that you want to use you can try to use the Magento Cloud CLI to add users or the Adobe Support to guide you. I’ve written another article to do the same thing via CLI, so if you’re a developer check this out.

When you access the main project panel you might see the gear on the left side of the screen, right after the project name.

You might see in the user tab an add button, entering the user email, you will send an invite.

If you don’t know the right permission, you can consult the table of restrictions and descriptions in this post.

For a project administrator account, select Super User. This role provides Admin rights to all settings and environments. If not selected, the account has only view options for all project environments.
Select permissions per specific environment (or branch) in the Integration environment:

  • No access
  • Admin (change settings, execute an action, merge code)
  • Contributor (push code), or Reader (view only)

When you add active environments, you can modify permissions per user.
