Teams
Group several members under a named team to make task assignment and operational clarity easier.
Beyond roles (which define what a member can do), ZenHost lets you create internal Teams: named groups of members within your workspace, useful to assign a task to a whole team in one shot, and to visualize your operation by function.
Open the teams page
Teams menu in the sidebar, or the Manage teams button on the Members page.
The Teams Management page lists your existing teams as cards:
- Name of the team (e.g. "Cleaning", "Concierge", "Maintenance").
- Color indicator (a colored bar on the card's left edge).
- Description (truncated to 100 chars in the list).
- Members count badge.
- View members — a button that lists the teammates attached.
- Action menu — Edit, Delete.
A search bar and bottom pagination help you navigate if you have many teams.
Create a team
Create team button. The form asks for:
- Name of the team.
- Description (optional).
- Color (ZenHost palette).
- Members — multi-select among the workspace's members.
On save, the team appears immediately in the list and can be assigned to tasks.
Edit or delete a team
From a card's action menu:
- Edit — change name, description, color, members.
- Delete — confirmation required. Deleting a team does not remove its members; it just removes the grouping.
What a team is for
Today, a team is mainly used for task assignment (see Automations → Tasks). Instead of manually assigning a cleaning to Paul, Sophie, and Marc each time, you assign the task to the Cleaning team and all its members see it.
Teams are also a visual cue for operational clarity — you see at a glance who belongs to which function.
Permissions
Today, creating / editing / deleting a team is reserved to the workspace Owner role — the teams permission is not yet exposed in the Manage Custom Roles matrix. If you need to delegate team management to another member, assign them the Owner role.
Reading teams is granted to every member by default, so that task assignment to a team works for everyone.
