Invite teammates
A short recipe: invite someone, put them on a team, give them a role. For the deeper model — account types, role layers, authorization policies — see the Access section.
Prerequisites
- An organization admin role (or a role that includes the relevant Members and Teams permissions). Regular members can browse but not invite or modify membership.
Invite a member
- Open Settings → Members and click Invite member.
- Enter the invitee's email.
- Pick initial teams to add them to. You can change this later.
- Click Send invite.
The invitee gets an email with a link. They run through signup (create account, verify email, optional 2FA) and land in your organization as a member.
Invite expiry
Invites are time-limited. If someone misses the window, re-send from the Members page — it generates a fresh link.
Put them on a team and pick a role
- Open Settings → Teams and click into the team (or create one with Create team).
- Click Members → Add member and pick the new person.
- Pick their team role. The same person can hold different roles on different teams.
That's it — they have access via the team's roles. For a richer treatment of org roles vs. team roles vs. policies, see Roles & permissions.
