Hello,

A colleague of ours left recently, and he created the 2 organisations we are. Some folders are not accessible to us, and we can’t access his account anymore.

From the admin interface I didn’t see the option to change the owner of an organization ? Or maybe there is another way to get permissions on a folder / organization ?

Thanks

You can click on a user’s organization to change the role inside the organization. I’ve described the steps on the wiki page:

> **[Enabling admin page](https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/wiki/Enabling-admin-page#users)**
>
> Unofficial Bitwarden compatible server written in Rust, formerly known as bitwarden\_rs - dani-garcia/vaultwarden
