Account Help
Roles and access
When you enroll in the Apple Developer Program or Apple Developer Enterprise Program, you automatically become the Account Holder for your membership. If you’re enrolled as an organization, you have the option of adding additional members to your team. The role you assign them controls access to the development and distribution tools included with your membership.
Roles for the Apple Developer Program
Each organization has one team with one set of roles across the Apple Developer website and App Store Connect. Management of users and roles is done in App Store Connect.
