Groups let you organize workspace members into named collections, making it easier to manage access across your workspace. Instead of managing permissions for individual users, you can grant access to an entire group at once. With groups, you can:
  • Share projects with groups so that an entire team gets access at once, instead of adding collaborators one by one
  • Share folders with groups so that all projects inside a folder are accessible to an entire team at once
  • Control who can access published apps by restricting a published website or internal tool to specific groups instead of the entire workspace
  • Sync groups from your identity provider so that groups created through SCIM provisioning appear alongside manually created groups
Groups are available on Business and Enterprise plans.

Create and manage groups

Workspace admins and owners can create and manage groups from the workspace settings.

Create a group

  1. Go to Settings → Groups
  2. Click Create group
  3. Enter a group name
  4. Search for and add members to the group
  5. Click Create group

Manage group members

To add or remove members from an existing group:
  1. Go to Settings → Groups
  2. Click a group to expand it
  3. To add a member, click Add member and search for the person you want to add
  4. To remove a member, click the menu on a member row and select Remove
Each group member has a role within the group: Admin or Member. Group admins can add and remove members from the group. You can change a member’s group role from the member menu. A workspace member can belong to multiple groups. Changes to group membership take effect immediately.

Delete a group

  1. Go to Settings → Groups
  2. Click a group to expand it
  3. Click Delete group
Deleting a group removes the group and its associated access. It does not remove members from the workspace.

SCIM groups

If your workspace uses SCIM provisioning, groups pushed from your identity provider automatically appear in Settings → Groups alongside manually created groups. SCIM-managed groups are marked with a SCIM badge and cannot be edited directly in Lovable. Membership for SCIM groups is managed from your identity provider. Both types of groups work the same way when granting access. For details on configuring group push and role mappings, see Set up SCIM user provisioning.

Share projects with groups

Instead of inviting individual collaborators to a project, you can share it with an entire group. This is useful when onboarding a new team to a project or when multiple people across a department need access.

Add a group to a project

  1. Open the project you want to share
  2. Click Share
  3. Search for a group name
  4. Select the group and assign a role
  5. Click Share
All members of the group are granted access to the project with the assigned role. Each group member receives a notification, and the project appears in their Shared with me section.

Remove a group from a project

  1. Open the project and click Share
  2. Find the group in the list of collaborators
  3. Click the menu on the group row and select Remove
Removing a group revokes access for all members of that group, unless they also have individual access to the project.

How group and individual access interact

  • If a member has both individual access and group access to a project, the higher permission level applies.
  • Removing a group from a project does not affect members who were also added individually.

Share folders with groups

On Business and Enterprise plans, you can add groups as collaborators on a folder. All projects inside the folder become accessible to members of that group with the role you assign. This is useful when a team needs access to a collection of related projects without having to be added to each one individually.

Add a group to a folder

  1. Go to your dashboard and find the folder
  2. Click the folder menu () and select Share
  3. Search for a group name
  4. Select the group and assign a role
  5. Click Share

Remove a group from a folder

  1. Click the folder menu () and select Share
  2. Find the group in the collaborator list
  3. Click the menu on the group row and select Remove
Removing a group from a folder revokes access to all projects in the folder for members of that group, unless they have individual access to a specific project.

Publish to specific groups

On Business and Enterprise plans, you can restrict who can access your published app to specific groups or individual users, rather than making it available to the entire workspace. This is useful when you want to:
  • Share internal tools with only the teams that need them
  • Restrict access to sensitive dashboards, for example financial reports for leadership only
  • Control app visibility across different departments
The Selected members option is only available when workspace access for the project is set to No access in the Share dialog. If the workspace can edit the project, member restrictions on the published website are not available. Project collaborators always retain access regardless of this setting.

First-time publish

  1. Open your project and click Publish
  2. Configure your website address and click Continue
  3. Under Who can see the website, select Selected members
  4. Click Continue to open the member selection page
  5. Search for and select the groups or individual users who should have access
  6. Click Continue to proceed to website info, then review and click Publish

Updating an already published project

  1. Open your project and click Publish
  2. Click Edit settings
  3. Click the edit icon next to Website access
  4. Select Selected members
  5. Click Edit or Add to open the member selection page
  6. Search for and select the groups or individual users who should have access
  7. Click Done to save your changes

All members of the group receive access with the role you assign. Each member gets a notification, and the project appears in their Shared with me section.
The higher permission level applies. For example, if a user has viewer access individually but their group has editor access, they get editor access. Removing the group does not affect their individual access.

Yes. On Business and Enterprise plans, you can add groups as collaborators on folders. All projects inside the folder become accessible to members of that group with the role you assign.
