# How to Invite a Team Member

Canonical page: https://docs.sealmetrics.com/platform/user-management/how-to-add-new-user

Owners and Admins can invite new members to the organization at any time.

## Steps

1. In the sidebar, open the **Organization** group and click **Members**
2. Click **Invite Member**
3. Enter the person's email address
4. Choose their organization role:
   - **Admin** -- manage members and all sites, no billing
   - **Member** -- access only to assigned sites
5. If you selected **Member**, select at least one site they should have access to (this is required)
6. Click **Send Invitation**

To make someone an Owner, invite them as Admin or Member first, then promote them from the Members list (only an existing Owner can do this).

The person will receive an email with a link to accept the invitation. If they do not have a Sealmetrics account yet, they will be asked to create one.

## What happens next

- The invitation expires after **7 days**. You can resend it from the Members page.
- Once the invitation is accepted, the new member gains access immediately.
- You can change their role or site assignments at any time from the Members page.
