# Members

The **Members** section in Sprinto, located under **Settings**, allows you to view, add, edit, and remove users who have access to your organisation’s Sprinto account. This section also enables you to assign and modify user roles to control access permissions effectively.

By managing members centrally, you can ensure that access is aligned with responsibilities, maintain security, and keep governance up to date.

### Accessing the Members section

1. Log in to the Sprinto dashboard and navigate to **Settings**.
2. Select **Members**.

You will see a list of all members, their assigned roles, and the areas they can access. Use the **All roles**, **Admins**, **Editors**, and **Collaborators** filters to narrow the list.
