The Acquia teams and permissions system enables you to control who in your organization has access to the tools you use to manage your applications.

Using the Acquia teams and permissions system, you can do the following tasks:

*   [Create teams](/acquia-cloud-platform/access/teams/teams) of developers.
*   [Assign roles](/acquia-cloud-platform/access/teams/roles#cloud-assign-roles-users) to team members.
*   [Invite new members](/acquia-cloud-platform/access/teams/members) to existing teams.
*   [Give teams access](/acquia-cloud-platform/access/teams/teams#cloud-review-team-assignments) to your Cloud Platform applications.
*   [Modify roles](/acquia-cloud-platform/access/teams/teams#cloud-review-team-assignments), specifying over 40 different permissions available in each role.

The teams and permissions feature controls the actions users can take using the Cloud Platform interface, such as:
