## Overview
Editing a team lets you change its name, status, parent team and managers. This covers static Teams — the standard, manually managed kind. (Dynamic Teams open a different editor for their name and rules; see the **How to Edit a Dynamic Team** article.) The team's avatar is changed separately — see the **Setting a Team Avatar** article.

## How to edit a team
1. Go to **Settings → Teams**.
2. Open the team you want to change.
3. Click **Actions → Edit Team**.
4. Update any of the fields:
   * **Team Name**
   * **Status** — Active or Inactive
   * **Parent Team** — the team this one sits under (optional)
   * **Primary manager** (optional)
   * **Additional Managers** (optional)
5. Click **Save changes**.

## Things to keep in mind
* This editor is for static Teams. A Dynamic Team opens an editor for its name and criteria instead.
* Renaming a team also updates the parent-team label shown on any of its sub-teams.
* **Additional Managers** can only be added once a **Primary manager** has been set.
* Only people who hold a **Manager**, **People Manager**, **Admin** or **Owner** role appear in the manager search.
* Teams synced from an external system show a plug icon and a warning; take care editing them, as a sync may overwrite your changes.
* Adding and removing people is done from the team's member list, not this window — see the **Adding people to a team** and **How to Remove a Person From a Team** articles.

## FAQs
**How do I move a team under another team?**
Set the **Parent Team** field to the team it should sit under, then save.

**Why can't I add an additional manager?**
Set a **Primary manager** first — the additional managers field stays disabled until one is chosen.

**How do I change the team's picture?**
The avatar is set from the team page separately — see the **Setting a Team Avatar** article.

## Who can do this
**Owners** and **Admins** can edit any team. A **Manager** who is set as a team's Primary Manager can edit that team. **People Managers**, **Content Managers** and **Instructors** can edit a team only where they are its Primary Manager. **Employees** and **Restricted** users cannot edit teams.
