The Creator Portal provides a way for you to form collaborative teams of developers and creators that can work together on shared UEFN projects.
With the UEFN teams feature, you can set clear roles and responsibilities, have different team members working on different features at the same time, and track changes and versions of shared projects.
These collaborative UEFN projects can also be published through the Creator Portal.
Setting Up Teams and Assigning Roles
Team members can have different roles depending on the project, so assign roles according to each one’s strengths, and the permissions you want to grant them. Teams have a maximum number of 30 members.

To invite others to a team, you will go through an age verification process that includes providing the email address used with your Epic account.
You must be over 18 to invite other creators to a team, or accept an invite to join another creator’s team.

Team members must be over 18 to join a team and work on team projects.

If you are on the team and have the appropriate role, you can change the role of a team member at any time by clicking on their role and selecting a new role from the dropdown menu.
When you log into the Creator Portal you can switch the portal view between your personal profile and the team profile by clicking the down arrow in the name badge and selecting the profile from the Select Team window. You can even choose to create a new team if you want from here as well.
