Add or remove a team administrator

[!INCLUDE version-lt-eq-azure-devops]

Learn how to add or remove team administrators. We recommend having multiple users with administration permissions for redundancy. Team administrators can manage teams and configure team tools and oversee projects. Remove a user's administration permissions if the user is no longer active.

To add a team, see Add teams. To add or remove a project administrator, see Change project-level permissions.
