Managing Projects, Teams, and Access
Learn how to share projects, manage teams and members, create subgroups, and collaborate effectively. We use the Global Translation Tools organization as a sample throughout.
In this guide, we focus on managing projects, teams, members, and access. We use the Global Translation Tools organization as a sample to demonstrate creating teams, managing access, and publishing to subgroups. The same steps will apply to your own organization.
About git.genesisrnd.com
When you create an account in the Codex application, your credentials are automatically set up on git.genesisrnd.com — a GitLab server that handles project hosting, team management, and synchronization for Codex projects. You can log into the web interface at git.genesisrnd.com using the same username and password you use in the Codex app. This is where you manage organizations, team members, and project access.

git.genesisrnd.comwhere team members can access it. - Example group used in this guide: Global Translation Tools.
2. Accessing the Group
- Log into git.genesisrnd.com with your Codex account credentials
