Update Amplitude Roles for the collaborator
Adjust the collaborator’ permissions whenever project scope changes or additional Amplitude modules come online.
When to Make Changes
- A new product project is added and the collaborator needs to QA instrumentation.
- Govern or Experiment is purchased and the collaborator should help administer tracking plans or experiments.
- Access should be restricted to specific projects as workstreams wind down.
- Your security team updates SSO group mappings or MFA requirements.
Update Workflow
- Navigate to Settings → Members & Groups and open the collaborator’s account.
- Review the Organization Role and toggle admin rights if the collaborator needs to manage billing, SSO, or integrations.
- Under Projects, adjust the list of assigned projects and set the correct project role for each.
- Enable or disable add-on module permissions (Govern, Experiment, Accounts) as requested.
- Save the changes and note the request ID or ticket number in the user’s comment field.
- Notify the collaborator’s lead so they can validate access on their side.
Validation
- Confirm the change in the Access Log to ensure it was recorded.
- Ask the collaborator to refresh Amplitude and verify that dashboards, charts, or data tools align with expectations.
- Update your IAM tracker or CMDB with the adjustment date and summary.
Common Tweaks
- Tracking Plan collaboration: Assign the Tracking Plan Editor role in Govern so the collaborator can approve events.
- Service accounts: For ingestion keys or data pipelines, use dedicated service users rather than the analytics login.
- Temporary elevation: Set a reminder to revert admin rights after the requested work completes.
