Where it isSet upSettings & teamTeam & roles
Before you invite
- Your plan sets the number of seats. Free has 1, Starter 3, Growth 10 and Scale 25. Team & roles shows how many you’ve used — for example, “3 of 10 seats used on your plan.” When every seat is taken, Invite teammate is greyed out and a link takes you to Billing & usage to move to a bigger plan.
- You need to be allowed to invite. If you don’t see Invite teammate, ask the person who set up the workspace.
Send an invitation
- Go to Set up › Settings & team and open Team & roles.
- Press Invite teammate.
- Type their Email address.
- Under Role, pick what they can do (see below).
- Add a Note (optional) if there’s something they should know.
- Press Send invitation.
You’ll see Invitation sent. The invitation expires in 14 days.
Pick the right role
Every workspace comes with three roles:
- Admin — can do everything, including inviting people, changing the plan and making refunds.
- Manager — runs the day: chats, orders, catalog, campaigns and settings. A Manager can’t invite people or change roles, change the plan or billing, make refunds, change a customer’s rewards balance, erase a contact, manage developer keys, change the workspace’s sign-in rules or read its security activity.
- Viewer — can see the workspace but can’t change anything.
Need a different mix? Under Roles, press New role, name it and choose what it may do. You can only give a role what your own role is allowed.
How your teammate joins
- They open the invitation email.
- They sign in — or create an account — with the email address you invited. Email and password, or Continue with Google with that same address, both work.
- They see Join this workspace and press Accept invitation.
They go straight into your workspace — no setup to do. If they sign in without opening the email, the invitation is waiting for them: they see You’ve been invited and press Accept & open workspace.
Manage invitations and requests
Open Set up › Settings & team › Requests.
- Invitations you’ve sent — press Resend to email a fresh link (the old one stops working), or Withdraw to cancel it.
- People asking to join — if you turn on the Shareable request link, anyone with it can ask to join. They get nothing until you press Approve as Viewer, or Decline.
Change a role, suspend or remove someone
In Team & roles, press the ⋯ button beside a person:
- Change role — pick the new role and press Save role.
- Suspend access — they keep their place but can’t sign in to this workspace until you press Reinstate.
- Remove from workspace — they lose access at once. Their conversations and history stay.
A workspace always keeps at least one person who can manage the team.
If something’s not right
- “We couldn’t send that invitation” — the invitation was made, but the email didn’t go out. Check the address and press Try again.
- Your teammate sees “That invitation is not open, or it was sent to a different address.” — they’re signed in with a different email, or the invitation was withdrawn or has expired. Ask them to use Use a different account, or resend it from Requests.
- Your teammate sees “Verify your email address before accepting an invitation.” — they signed up with email but haven’t confirmed it. Ask them to open our confirmation email first.
- No email arrived — ask them to check spam, then press Resend in Requests.
