Invite a new admin
This guide shows you how to give someone admin access to your organization by sending them an email invitation.
Who can do this: Admins who have permission to invite other admins. Org owners can do this by default.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- You need the person’s email address, first name, and last name.
- The person must not already have admin access. If they do, you’ll see an error when you try to invite them.
- Decide which role to assign. The invitation defaults to “Read-only” — you can change it before you send.
- Go to
Admin & Security→ Admins. - Click Invite admin.
- Enter the person’s Email address.
- Enter their First name and Last name.
- In the Initial role dropdown, select the role you want this admin to start with. If you’re unsure, leave it as Read-only — you can change it later.
- Review the note about the invitation link. The link is valid for 30 days and does not share any existing credentials.
- Click Send invitation.
The invitee receives an email with a sign-in link. When they click it, they set a password, accept the policy, and their account becomes active. You don’t need to do anything else.
Resend an invitation
Section titled “Resend an invitation”If the invitee hasn’t accepted after 7 days, you can resend the link.
- Go to
Admin & Security→ Admins → Pending invitations tab. - Find the invitation row and open its ⋮ menu.
- Click Resend invite.
Verify
Section titled “Verify”You’ll know it worked when you see the “Invitation sent to [email]” confirmation message and the invitation appears in the Pending invitations tab on the Admins list.
If something goes wrong
Section titled “If something goes wrong”- “This email already has admin access” — The address you entered belongs to an existing admin. Check the Admins list to find them.
- “Pick a starting role — you can change it later” — You submitted the form without selecting a role. Choose a role in the Initial role dropdown and try again.
- Invitee says the link expired — Invitation links are valid for 30 days. Go to Pending invitations and resend the invitation.
