Skip to main content
Team management is where admins shape Libra to fit the firm: assigning roles, creating user groups, and distributing licenses. For most users this page is read-only; for admins it’s the control panel.

User groups update shares retroactively. Add an associate to “Corporate Law” and they instantly see every project and template the group has.
Team management and sharing features are available on the Teams plan.

Team profile

The Team tab in Settings is where admins manage how the firm appears inside Libra. Owners and Admins can edit; Members see the values read-only.

User groups

User groups are named lists of team members for easier sharing. Sharing a project with the “Corporate Law” group adds every member of that group at once, and adds new members automatically as they join the group.
Only Admins and Owners create and manage user groups. Members can see the groups they belong to.

Tips

The first month is when a firm’s group structure gets locked in. Spend an hour at the start mapping out the right groups, by practice area, by office, by seniority, and you avoid months of ad-hoc individual sharing.
A group called “M&A Berlin Associates 2025” is more useful than “Group A”. Names should reflect the actual structure your firm operates in.
Set a calendar reminder. Open shared resources, scan Who has access, remove anyone who’s left the firm or the matter.
View for colleagues who consume. Edit for the people who maintain it. Admin is for co-owners only; granting Admin lets someone delete the resource.
