# Joining a Zulip organization
|
|
|
|
By default, Zulip organizations require an invitation to join.
|
|
|
|
Organization administrators can also allow anyone to join without an
|
|
invitation, and/or restrict user email addresses to a company domain. See
|
|
[inviting new users](/help/invite-new-users).
|
|
|
|
## Check if you need an invitation to join
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the Zulip URL of the organization.
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Sign up** at the top of the screen.
|
|
|
|
1. If you see a sign up form, invitations are not required! Otherwise, the
|
|
page will say that you need an invitation to join.
|
|
|

|
## Check if you need an email from a specific domain
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the Zulip URL of the organization.
|
|
|
|
1. Click **Sign up** at the top of the screen.
|
|
|
|
1. Try to create an account with your desired email address.
|
|
|
|
1. If your email address is not from an allowed domain, you will get an
|
|
error message to that effect.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
## Accept an invitation
|
|
|
|
Invitations to Zulip organizations often come by email. Look for an email
|
|
from Zulip. It may take a few minutes for the invitation email to reach your
|
|
inbox.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, an organization administrator may have sent you an invitation
|
|
link via another method.
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
* If you are joining multiple Zulip organizations, we recommend
|
|
using the [Zulip Desktop app](../apps). The desktop app makes it easy to
|
|
[switch between different organizations](/help/switching-between-organizations).
|
|
|
|
* If your company uses single sign-on (SSO) authentication for Zulip,
|
|
these instructions may not apply. Try going to your company's Zulip URL
|
|
to see if there are instructions there; otherwise contact your manager
|
|
or IT department for company-specific instructions.
