Billing
View the Billing Projects you can access by going to the "Billing" section. Here you can view a list of Billing Projects you are associated with and your role (e.g. Owner, User). Billing Project Owners can use this section to see lists of members for all Billing Projects, and to add or remove users on their Billing Projects. To learn more about the level of access for different user roles, please read the article on Access Policy.
Groups
The "groups" section is where leaders manage team access to data, code, and computational resources. Owner-level users are able to invite and/or grant access for other collaborators. Group owners can use this to assign other users roles of various access levels, allowing group managers to control who is able to view/copy the contents of their workspace, run computations on affiliated account, or edit the content. For more information on the structure of permissions on Terra, please read the article on Access Policy.
