Customizable Default Roles for OIDC Users

We’re introducing customizable default member roles for organizations using OIDC authentication.

Previously, every new member signing in via OIDC was automatically assigned the Viewer role by default. While this ensured a secure baseline, it often created unnecessary friction for admins. Admins frequently had to manually assign roles for new members - an extra task that slowed down the onboarding process.

With this update, we’re giving you more control over how new members are assigned roles. You can now configure a default role for OIDC users in your organization’s settings. This role will be applied automatically to every new member who signs in via OIDC.

How to set a default role

The default role is set to Viewer, but you can change it in the OIDC configuration to any role you’ve created.

1. Navigate to your organization’s settings.
2. Open the OIDC configuration.
3. Select the Default Member Role option to the role that best fits your team’s onboarding process.
4. No need to save - the changes are applied automatically.
