Cannot Set an Admin User

Evan Cook_v9eab5

hi there, something seems very broken with our Ops Genie accounts

we have one Ops Genie team configured with four "User" members (i.e. no admins) - I am working with a coworker who is an Organization Admin, but they cannot access Ops Genie at all - any attempt just redirects them here https://parallellearning.app.opsgenie.com/auth/login?type=sso, which prompts for a password that they do not have b/c we've all been using SSO - attempting to password reset does nothing - this is admin is not a member of any Ops Genie team, nor is there any apparent way of making them one

we've poked around Atlassian Admin for a while now looking for some way to make one of these users an admin (it has to be possible - i.e. https://support.atlassian.com/opsgenie/docs/learn-user-roles-and-permissions/) but have not had any luck, all the select dropdowns only offer "User" to be selected

has anyone experienced this issue or have any ideas to get our site unstuck?

Hi @Evan Cook

It looks like the 'parallellearning' Opsgenie account is on the free version which only allows up to 5 users.

Any users beyond the 5th user would not be able to access the account until the subscription was first updated to a plan with a higher user count. The user with the "owner" role would be the person who has access to make that change from within Opsgenie under Settings >> Subscription. 

You are correct that from the Atlassian admin screen, you can only add new users with the "user" role, but not "Admins." making users Admin users must be done from within Opsgenie.
