Have a question? Check the following list for your answer. If your question isn't listed, ask the community.
How do I add more than 20 people to my team?
You can only add upto 20 users in one go using the Manage people feature. Repeat the Add people process to add more. If you have a significantly larger team, use the Adobe Admin Console to add users in bulk.
Note:
After 20 users, you cannot access the user management features. We recommend you to use Adobe Admin Console if your team has 21 or more members.
I don't see the Manage People option in Adobe Express. Why?
The Manage people feature is only available for admins with Adobe Business Direct plans. If your team has an Adobe Business Direct plan, please contact your team admin to get Admin rights.
I see "Your team is too large for in-app management". What's wrong?
In-app user management functionality works best for smaller teams of up to 20 members. You can keep adding users after you've reached 20. However, the experience is disabled as soon as the total number of users reaches 50.
If you have a larger team, we recommend using Adobe Admin Console to manage your team and their licenses.
Can I change my role from Admin to Member?
As an admin, you can only change other users' roles and access. You can not change your own role or access or remove yourself from the team.
You can assign another user with an admin role and ask them to change your role, change your app access, or remove yourself from the team.
How can I recover data for a user who's no longer on the team?
If the removed user was on the Business Storage model, you can recover the user's data using asset reclamation in the Adobe Admin Console.
