Managing Project Members#

You manage project members by first inviting people to join a project and managing the invitation process, including sending them reminders to accept the invitation and revoking invitations. You can also change members’ roles, seat types, and solver-access time limits as well as remove members from projects.

Member Roles and Privileges#

A member has one of the following roles and associated privileges.

Table 46 Member Roles and Privileges#

User

Project member who has the following privileges in the project:

  • Manage and submit their problems to solvers.

  • Manage their own profile settings.

  • Reset their API token.

Members that have the User role cannot access Leap Admin.

Inviting People to Join a Project#

You invite people to join a project by sending them email invitations via Leap Admin. To join the project, the person must accept the invitation by clicking the link in the email. A person who is new to Leap must also create a Leap account.

Invitations expire after 14 days; you can send reminders to people who have active invitations. If an invitation expires or is revoked, you can send a new invitation.

Access to Leap is supported only from certain regions. For more information, see the From What Countries Can I Access Leap article.

When creating an account or joining a project, the person might be required to accept the D-Wave terms and conditions. The customer contract determines whether or not this is required for people joining the project.

Note

To change whether accepting terms and conditions is required or not, contact D-Wave Customer Support.

Procedure#

  1. To invite people to join a project or organization, click Invite > role.

    Role is one of the project member roles to assign to a person: User, Project Admin, or Organization Admin. Only an organization administrator can assign the Organization Admin role.

    For more information, see Member Roles and Privileges.

  2. In the invitation dialog box, specify the following fields:

    Table 47 Invitation Dialog Box#

    Organization

    (Read-only) Organization to which you are inviting people.

    Project

    Project to which you are inviting people.

    Seat Type

    An available seat type for the invitees. For more information, see the Seat Types section.

    Email

    Email addresses or member names (if they already exist in Leap) of the people you want to invite to the project.

    Tip:

    • You can copy and paste multiple email addresses from either a single column in an Excel spreadsheet or a semicolon-, space-, new line-, or comma-delimited list (for example, a CSV file).

    • To edit an invitee, double-click the field for the invitee’s name or email address.

    • To display an email address, place the pointer over the invitee field.

    • To delete an invitee at the end of the list, place the cursor at the end of the list and press Backspace. To delete the next invitee, press Backspace again.

      Note: The email addresses to be added must be specified in the Overview tab > Allowed Email Settings section. For more information, see Changing the Allowed Email Addresses for Members.

    Set solver access limit (time-based projects only)

    Maximum amount of solver-access time available per month for the specified invitees. You set this maximum with one of the following options:

    • Deselected

      (Default) This field is set to the amount of solver-access time in the Project Member Default Solver Access Limit field.

    • Selected

      Choose one of the following options:

      • Use Project Default — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the lower of either the value in the Project Member Default Solver Access Limit field or the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

      • Unlimited Access to Project Solver Time — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the full monthly solver-access time allocated to the project as determined by the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

      • Custom Amount — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the lower of either this custom value or the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

Once people occupy seats in a project, they have the privileges associated with their role as described in Member Roles and Privileges; for example, access to the project’s solvers.

A list of members is displayed on the Project Members tab as follows:

Table 49 Project Members Tab#

User

Name and email address of the member. Click the name to display more information about the member.

Note

  • Only people who have created Leap accounts would have more information about them to display; for example, a person who has the Invitation Sent member status would not have created a Leap account.

  • A member with a user name of Archived User represents a Leap user account that has had its personal identifiable information (PII) anonymized or removed.

Seat Type

A seat type gives a member a certain amount of solver-access time.

For more information, see Seat Types.

Role

A role gives a member certain privileges. For more information, see Member Roles and Privileges.

Project Usage for Month

Displays the amount of solver-access time that a member has consumed for all solvers during the monthly renewal period. Solvers have different usage rates. For more information, see the Operation and Timing section of the QPU Solver Datasheet.

Solver Access Limit

Displays the amount of solver-access time that is allocated to a member.

Membership Status

The status of the member in the project. For more information, see Viewing the Status of a Member.

Tip: In the Membership Status column filter, the number of members in a particular status for the project is displayed in parentheses next to the status name.

To display information on a specific member, click the project’s Project Members tab > member_name. The following information is displayed:

Table 50 Single User Tab#

Changing a Project Member’s Seat Type#

On the project’s Project Members tab, click meatball_menu for a member in the table and select Change seat type.

For example, if a project member who occupies a User seat is on vacation, you could temporarily free up their seat by changing their seat type to Inactive and then inviting another person to occupy the seat and submit problems until the vacationing member returns.

Note

Switching a member or application to a seat type with less solver-access time than already consumed in the current period disables problem submission for that member or application until the next period.

Modifying the Limit on a Member’s Solver-Access Time#

  1. On the Project Members tab, click meatball_menu for a member in the table and select Modify Solver Access Limit.

  1. In the Modify Solver Access Time dialog box, select one of the following to set the desired limit on solver-access time:

    • Use Seat-Type Default — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the seat type’s solver-access limit as specified in the Seat-Type Default Limit field.

    • Custom Amount — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to this custom value. This value must be equal to or less than the seat type’s solver-access limit as specified in the Seat-Type Default Limit field.

      For time-based projects, sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the lower of either this custom value or the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

    • Use Project Default (time-based projects only) — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the lower of either the value in the Project Member Default Solver Access Limit field or the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

    • Unlimited Access to Project Solver Time (time-based projects only) — Sets the maximum amount of solver-access time to the full monthly solver-access time allocated to the project as determined by the sum of the project’s active solver-access time records.

Tip

To change the limit on solver-access time for multiple members simultaneously, perform the following:

  1. On the Project Members tab, select the members for whom you want to change the limit on solver-access time. The selected members must occupy the same seat type.

  2. Select the Manage Selected > Modify Solver Access Limit menu.

  3. Set the desired limit on solver-access time in the Modify Solver Access Limit dialog box, which is the same one that is displayed for a single member.

    2. Select the Manage Selected > Remove from project menu.

      If you do not want to send notifications to members, select the option to not send email notifications to members in the dialog box that is displayed.

When members are removed, their statuses change to Inactive for the project and they can no longer use the solvers in the project. However, their usage statistics are preserved for historical purposes.

If you remove a member with the Org Admin role from that member’s last project, then the Org Admin role is also removed from the member.

If you want a person to rejoin a project or return as an organization administrator, send an invitation as described in Inviting People to Join a Project.

If you are the only organization administrator in an organization and you remove yourself from your last project, your Org Admin role is removed and you will not be able to access the organization in Leap Admin. To reinstate access, contact D-Wave Customer Support.
