In this topic, you learn how to set permissions in Team Foundation Server for a project-level content manager for a team project.
Required Permissions
To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Team Foundation Administrators group or have the Edit Server-Level Information permission set to Allow. For more information about permissions, see Team Foundation Server Permissions.
To add a member to the Project Administrators group
In Visual Studio, open Team Explorer, and then connect to Team Foundation Server.
Right-click the team project node, point to Team Project Settings, and then click Group membership.
Select [Project_Name]\Project Administrators, where Project_Name represents the name of the project you want to add an administrator to, and then click Properties.
In Add member, select Windows User or Group, and then click Add.
Add the Windows logon name for the person or group you want to grant permissions to, and then click OK.
Besides completing this procedure, you must also grant project lead permissions on Reporting Services and Windows SharePoint Services in order to add a person in the Team Project Lead role.
