# Organization Roles

> Learn about roles and permissions for members of an organization.

## Basic Roles and Permissions

There are 2 base roles for an organization:

### Admin

Can do anything in the organization or child workspaces:

* Can add new workspaces to the organization.
* Can add new members to the organization.
* Can view billing overview for the organization.
* Can change details of the organization such as changing name, logo, etc.
* Has [Owner](../workspaces/roles#owner) permissions for all workspaces in the organization.

### Member

Can view the organization and access child workspaces:

* Can access any workspace in the organization.
* Can have a [default role](../workspaces/roles) in all workspaces in the organization.
  * I.e. you can set a member to be a **Viewer** or **Admin** in all workspaces by default.

## Changing a Member Organization Workspace Role

You can set a default role for a member which they will have in every organization workspace on Latch:

1. Go to Organization Settings > Members Tab.
2. Click on the workspace role dropdown for the user.
