# Team-based JetBrains AI access

If you don't want to enable access to JetBrains AI tools and features for all users in your organization, you can enable it for specific [teams](about-teams.html) only. Access is then managed per team: only users whose license with AI belongs to a team that is allowed to use JetBrains AI can use JetBrains AI features.

> **Note:**
> Enabling team-based access on the Settings page  requires the [Manage AI settings](roles.html#permissions_manage_ai_settings) or [Manage organization](roles.html#permissions_manage_org) permission.
>
> * The following default roles include the [Manage AI settings](roles.html#permissions_manage_ai_settings) permission: [Org admin](roles.html#org_admin), [AI admin](roles.html#ai_admin).
>
> * The only default role that includes the [Manage organization](roles.html#permissions_manage_org) permission is [Org admin](roles.html#org_admin).
>
>
>
> Allowing JetBrains AI for a specific team requires access to the [Teams](about-teams.html) page in the Licensing section, which has its own permission requirements.

Here is how the whole process works:

* An [org admin](roles.html#org_admin) allows managing JetBrains AI access per-team and specifies the teams that should be allowed to use JetBrains AI. For more information, see [Enable JetBrains AI](ai-settings.html#enable-ai).

* An [org admin](roles.html#org_admin) also ensures that those teams have licenses with AI. For more information, see [Transfer licenses between teams](transfer-licenses-between-teams.html).

* An [org admin](roles.html#org_admin) or a [team admin](roles.html#team_admin) assigns team licenses with AI to specific users. For more information, see Assigning licenses to users manually .

* An [org admin](roles.html#org_admin) or a [team admin](roles.html#team_admin) also [enables JetBrains AI access for a specific team](#enable-jetbrains-ai-access-for-specific-team). Only users with AI licenses assigned to this team will be able to use JetBrains AI features.

Procedure: Enable JetBrains AI access for specific teams

1. Expand the AI management section and select Settings.

If you don't see this page, or the controls on this page are not available, your role doesn't have the necessary [permissions](roles.html#permissions).

2. Make sure that JetBrains AI access is enabled with management on the team level (not for everyone in the organization) and is allowed for the team in question.

For more information, see [Enable JetBrains AI](ai-settings.html#enable-ai).

3. In the sidebar, expand Licensing and click Teams.

4. On the Teams page, select the team for which you want to enable JetBrains AI.

5. On the team's management page, click Administration.

6. On the team's Administration pane, under JetBrains AI, click Allow for this team.
