# Restrict Access to Specific AI Agents

> Learn how to limit a team member's access to specific AI agents within a project.

By default, team members can access every AI agent in a project. If you need to limit a member to only certain agents, for example, to keep client work separated or to scope a support agent to a specific product, you can restrict their access when inviting them or at any time afterwards.

## How to restrict a member's access

### When inviting a new member

1. From the Project menu, go to **Settings** > **Members** and click **Invite**.
2. Enter the member's email address and select their role(s).
3. In the **Restrict access** section, click the search field and select one or more agents from the dropdown. You can type to filter by name.

4. Click **Send invite**.

The member will only be able to see and interact with the agents you selected once they accept the invite.

### For an existing member

1. From the **Members** page, click the three-dot menu next to a member and choose **Edit role**.
2. In the **Restrict access** section, click the search field and select one or more agents from the dropdown. You can type to filter by name.
3. Click **Update**.

## Removing a restriction

To give a member access to all agents again, go to the member's role editor and remove all AI agents from the **Restrict access** field (leaving it empty). Click **Update** - the member will immediately regain full project access.

## What happens when access is restricted

When you save a restriction (or narrow an existing one), the following cleanup is applied automatically:

* Member is immediately restricted from accessing any agents outside their allowed set.
* The member is unassigned from any open conversations that belong to agents they can no longer access.
* The member is removed from notifications for agents outside their allowed set.
* Any pending scheduled notification emails for restricted agents are cancelled.

## Viewing a member's current restriction

On the **Members** page, restricted members are shown with a badge listing the agents they have access to. Members with full access show no badge.
