# Workspace Membership Reviews

> How admins should audit member lists, roles, and dormant access inside one workspace.

## Overview

The **Members** tab is the workspace-level access review surface. It lets admins answer:

* who belongs in this workspace now
* what workspace role each person holds
* whether anyone should be added or removed

## What The Members Table Shows

| Column             | Why it matters                                           |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**           | Confirms who the member actually is                      |
| **Workspace role** | Shows how much authority they have inside this workspace |
| **Last active**    | Helps identify dormant or questionable access            |

This is enough context for most workspace access decisions.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the table after the change">
    Confirm that the new members appear with the expected workspace role and that the member list still reflects a real operating team.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What To Review Regularly

* members who no longer work in the workspace's active initiatives
* members with broader roles than they need
* dormant users who still hold access
* workspaces where the member list is much larger than expected

***

## Best Practices

* Review membership at the workspace level when the question is local to one workspace.
* Keep the member list narrow and operational.
* Pair role review with activity review so access stays grounded in real usage.
* Export the member list before large cleanup passes if you want a simple audit trail.
