Understand account roles in Mindjet

Mindjet Accounts have an Owner, Administrators (optional), Members, and Guests.

Note: Your role and your access rights for items within the account determine your ability to use certain features of Mindjet.  If performing an action is not permitted, the command will be disabled.  (For complete information about the different permissions levels, see Understand Maps access rights.)

View and edit account details

The Account Management dialog’s General tab lets you view the details of accounts in which you are the Owner, an Administrator, or a Member.  It will not display information about accounts in which you are a Guest. 

Note: the Account Management options will not be available if you are a Guest in all the accounts in which you participate.

You'll see the Account Management dialog.

If you have more than one account, you can select and view each account’s details using the drop-down Account menu.  This menu lists the name of each account, the type of account, and your role in the account.

Account Name

Owners and Administrators can change the name of the account:

Account Status

Shows when your account will expire. You will receive a reminder to renew it before this date. If your account is “suspended,” you will not be able to use its content. Contact Mindjet for information on re-instating your account.

Storage Usage

The amount of storage available in your account depends on the number of users in your account. 

Member Seats  

Your Mindjet web account has a limited number of "seats". If you are the Owner of the account you can purchase additional seats at any time:

This link takes you to the Mindjet store, where you can purchase additional seats.

Leave Account

If you no longer want to be an account user, click Leave Account. Owners cannot leave an account until they select a new owner.

Delete Non-paid account

If you have a previous unpaid Reader or an expired Trial account as well as a current paid account, you will see the unpaid account in the Account  drop down menu. To delete that account:

The account, and any maps and task lists associated with the account, will be deleted.

Note: you must be the Account owner to delete an unpaid Reader or  expired Trial  account.

Manage Guests and Members (Account Owners and Administrators only)

In the Account Management Guests and Members tabs, you can:

Invite a Guest or Member

Any user can invite a Guest to join the account by adding them to a Project, or by sharing content with them in Projects or Library view.

If you are the account Owner or Administrator, you can invite Members to join the account in two ways:

Note: Your account has a limited number of Member seats. If you reach this limit, you cannot invite a new Member until you add more seats to your account, or remove one of the existing members.

To invite a Member from the Members tab:

  1. Click Invite.

  2. In the Invite Member dialog enter the information for the person you want to invite, choose their Role, and then click Add.

Mindjet sends an email invitation to the person.  

Until a user responds to an invitation to join the account, their status is shown as "Pending".

Hint: If you want to revoke a pending invitation, simply remove the Guest or Member from the list.  

Remove a Guest or Member

You can remove a Guest or Member from your account, withdrawing all access.  Because removing a user is a permanent action, Mindjet prompts you to confirm the removal. If you remove a Member from a Mindjet account, this creates a vacant "seat", which you can use for a new Member.

Note: Members cannot remove other Members from the account.

  1. In the Guest or Member tab, select the user to remove.

  2. Click Remove.

  3. You are asked to confirm this deletion. Click OK to confirm, or Cancel to retain the user.

Change a user’s role

Owners and Administrators can change a user's role in the account at any time.

To change a Guest's role:

  1. In the Guests tab, select the user whose role you want to change.

  2. Click Convert to Member.

To change a Member's role

  1. In the Members tab, select the Member whose role you want to change.

  2. Click Change Role, and select the role you want to give the user. 

Send an invitation reminder

If you’ve sent someone an invitation, but they haven’t responded, you can send them a reminder.

  1. Select the invited Guest (Pending) or Member (Pending) to remind.

  2. Click Send Reminder.

  3. In the Send Reminder dialog, click OK.
