Team Model Authorization

Feature Overview

Team model authorization determines "which teams can use which models, and under what quotas and rules". It is both a capability distribution tool and a cost governance tool.

Use Cases

This capability is suitable when:

• Different teams need different tiers of models
• The platform wants to control the access scope of high-cost models
• Model consumption needs to be tracked by team

Prerequisites

Before configuration, we recommend preparing:

• Available models have already been connected to the platform
• The team structure has already been established
• There is already an initial plan for model capabilities and budgets for different teams

Steps

Step 1: Divide models into tiers first

We recommend first dividing models into several categories, such as:

• General-purpose models
• High-performance models
• Specialized models, such as vision, Embedding, and video

This makes later authorization easier to turn into rules instead of assigning models randomly team by team.

Step 2: Determine each team's available scope

Decide based on each team's business importance, budget, and use cases:

• Which models can be used directly
• Which models require approval or restrictions
• Which models are not open to the team

Step 3: Set quota and frequency rules

If the platform supports quota, request count, or Token limits, we recommend configuring them at the same time. Authorizing models without quotas usually cannot form a true governance loop.

Step 4: Verify the team-side result in practice

Use a team member account to open the application creation or model selection interface and confirm:

• Only authorized models are visible
• Quota policies take effect during actual calls
• There is recognizable feedback when usage abnormally exceeds the quota

Result Validation

We recommend confirming at least:

• The model lists visible to different teams match expectations
• High-cost models are not open to all teams by default
• Usage statistics can be traced back by team

Value

The value of team model authorization lies in:

• More precise capability access
• More executable cost control
• Team-specific needs can be handled through the platform

Notes

• Do not manage model authorization and role permissions together
• High-cost models should be restricted by default instead of open by default
• After each new model is added, the team authorization strategy should be reviewed again
