Project Owners
This article explains how to assign project owners, what the project owner role does, and how to decide who should be the owner of projects you create in Motion.io.
How to Assign Project Owners
When creating a new project in Motion.io (either from scratch or a template), the modal that opens after clicking "Create new project" allows you to set an owner for that project. Select a team member from the dropdown to set an owner for the project you are creating.
Deciding Who Should Be the Project Owner
Generally, we recommend assigning the project owner to the team member who will most frequently communicate (i.e., the main point of contact) with clients throughout the project.
Updating Project Owners
If you want to update the owner of a specific project to have it be someone else on your team, you can do so at any time.
Select a project from your dashboard and click "Settings" from the top navigation menu. On the "General" tab, use the dropdown to specify a new Project Owner and click "Save."
👋 Tip: When creating a new project from a template, the project owner will default to the team member who originally created it. If you'd like to change the default project owner on a template to someone else on your team, you can follow the same process for active projects outlined above.
