'Generate Team Invitation' failed. Permission denied.
I've created a new project area and added a member using the web client.
After saving it, if I try to send the new member an invite email, i get the following message: "Error generating team invitations. 'Generate Team Invitation' failed. Permission denied." My account is both a JazzAdmin and JazzProjectAdmin. Can anyone explain why this is occuring? |

I've created a new project area and added a member using the web client. Hi Mentioning some things I tend to check first - so apologies if you have already checked these. Check you have a valid client access licenses. You need some form of licenses (I tend to give myself a Developer licenses just to avoid problems). Check you are also a member of the project, (or you appear as the administrator). If you are a member of the project - check your role - you may not have permission to send the team invite. What process are you using (and is it out-of-the-box or customised)? regards anthony |
hi anthony, Thanks.. I assumed as administrator of a project, I'd have full rights already enabled to do it all. I needed to be a member of the project with a role or change the default setting for "everyone" to enable the sending of the mail. |

Having an adminstrator that can't do user stuff may seem bizzare but is actually quite useful in practice - you can have an admin team that can go in and set up projects, but can't accidentally interfere with project work. anthony |

In RTC 2.0, administrators don't have special permissions when it comes to sending invitations. You have to grant them role-based permissions as Anthony explains. In RTC 3.0, this has changed. In this new version we've extended administrators privileges to include sending team invitations. - Jared |
