# Invite new users
|
|
|
|
There are a number of ways to grant access to your Zulip organization;
|
|
the article below describes each in more detail.
|
|
|
|
* Allow **anyone to join** without an invitation.
|
|
|
|
* Allow people to join based on the **domain** of their email address.
|
|
|
|
* Send **email invitations**.
|
|
|
|
* Share a **reusable invitation link**.
|
|
|
|
The last two, invite-based, techniques also allow you to control the
|
|
[role (owner, admin, member, or guest)](/help/roles-and-permissions) that the
|
|
invited people will have.
|
|
|
|
You can also manage access by
|
|
[controlling how users authenticate](/help/configure-authentication-methods)
|
|
to Zulip. For example, you could allow anyone to join without an
|
|
invitation, but require them to authenticate via LDAP.
|
|
|
|
## Enable email signup
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|

{tab|restrict-by-email-domain}
|
|
|
|
1. Set [default streams](/help/set-default-streams-for-new-users) for new users.
|

{settings_tab|organization-permissions}
|
|
|
|
1. Find the section **Joining the organization**.
|
|
|
|
1. Set **Are invitations required for joining the organization** to **No**.
|
|
|

|
|
**Restrict to a list of domains**.

|

**Allow subdomains**.

Before anyone joins your organization this way, we'll send a validation link
|
|
to verify their email address.
|
|
|
|
## Send invitations
|
|
|
|
By default, organization admins and members can send
|
|
invitations. Organization admins can also change who can send invitations.
|
|
|
|
Note that on most Zulip servers (including Zulip Cloud), email invitations
|
|
and reusable invitation links expire 10 days after they are sent.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}

|
|
{relative|gear|invite}
|
|
|
|
1. Enter a list of email addresses.
|
|
|
|
1. Decide whether the users should join as [admins, members, or
|
|
guests](/help/roles-and-permissions).
|
|
|
|
1. Select which streams they should join. If you send invitations often, you
|
|
may want to configure a set of
|
|
[default streams](/help/set-default-streams-for-new-users).
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Invite**.
|
|
|
|

|
|
permission to invite users.
|
|
* The number of email invites you can send in a day is limited in
|
|
the free plan. [Contact us](/help/contact-support) if you hit the
|
|

members, or guests](/help/roles-and-permissions).

|
1. Select which streams they should join. If you send invitations often, you
|
|
may want to configure a set of
|
|
[default streams](/help/set-default-streams-for-new-users).
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Generate invite link**.
|
|
|
|
1. Copy the link, and send it to anyone you'd like to invite.
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|

|
|
permission to invite users.
|
|
* Only organization administrators can create these reusable invitation links.
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
restrict invites to admins only.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|organization-permissions}
|
|
|
|

|
**Are invitations required for joining the organization?** to
|
|
**Yes. Only admins can send invitations**.
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
## Manage pending invitations
|
|
|
|
Organization owners can revoke or resend any invitation or reusable
|
|
invitation link. Organization administrators can can do the same
|
|
except for invitations for the organization owners role.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|invites-list-admin}
|
|
|
|

|
|
