Invitations

An invitation applies to a specific email address and sets the role. If a person works for several institutions, each institution must invite them itself.

Owners and Administrators can invite people. Administrators can invite people in any role except Owner.

1. Open Settings → Team & access and choose Invite member.
2. Enter the email address the person will sign in with.
3. Choose the role. Viewer is preselected. More under Roles & access.
4. If you chose Editor, you can check "Allow this editor to publish channels."
5. Choose Send by email. CONTXT sends the invitation.

If you want to send the link yourself, clear the Send by email checkbox. Then choose Create invitation link and Copy link. If Send by email is not available, this is the only way.

An invitation is valid for seven days. The person must sign in with exactly the address the invitation was sent to.

Under Settings → Team & access → Invitations you see each invitation with its Status and Expires date.

For invitations sent by email, you see below how far delivery has progressed: "Queued", "Sent" or "Delivery failed — replace invitation".

• Replace invitation creates a new invitation for the same address. You can adjust the role and publishing while doing so. The old link then stops working.
• Revoke withdraws an open invitation. This link also stops working afterwards.

Request a code on the invitation page. If your address does not have access yet, you only receive the code if you opened the invitation in the same browser.
