Invite a team member
Multi-user workspaces require invitations so teammates access Contacts, Inbox, and modules per role. Open Settings → Team Members → Invitations (/workspace/users?tab=invitations) or Members for active users. Send invite with work email and role Admin, Manager, or Member. Pending invites can be resent or revoked. After acceptance, verify sidebar modules against Workspace modules and Roles & Permissions. Seat limits from Subscriptions block invites when full.

Use workspace search if you cannot find a sidebar item—some modules are role-gated.

- Populate Knowledge Hub before AI Employees or voice.
- Verify Notification preferences personally after changing templates.
