I’ve been using N8N for a month as a user, and now the admin of the account invited me to be an admin. We shared screen, and I’m not able to see the admin settings.
Hello @Stephane_Boghossian
On self-hosted n8n Community Edition, there are only two user roles: Owner and Member. The concept of an “Admin” role does not exist in this tier. Only the Owner has access to workspace-wide settings and user management functionalities.
Even if you have been invited and assigned an “admin” title, without being the Owner, you will not see the Admin settings menu.
So, as a Community Edition user, unless you’re the instance Owner, you’ll remain limited in administrative visibility, even with “admin” in your title.
For real admin access, the Owner would need to either transfer ownership or the team would need to upgrade to a plan that supports richer roles and permissions.
