Inviting Team Members
Send invitations by email or shareable link, role assignment, and acceptance flow
RPA Watch uses an invitation-based system to add new members. Invitations can be sent via email or shared as a link, and each invitation specifies the role the new member will receive.
Who Can Invite
| Your Role | Can Invite | To Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Tenant Admin | Any role | Any account or tenant level |
| Account Admin | Account Admin, Account User | Their own account only |
| Consultant | No one | — |
| Account User | No one | — |
Sending an Invitation

4. Select a role: Account Admin or Account User
5. Click Send Invitation
Tenant-Level Invitation (Tenant Admins Only)

How Invitations Work
Invitation Lifecycle
1. Created — Invitation is generated with a unique token
2. Email Sent — The recipient receives an email with an acceptance link
3. Accepted — The user clicks the link, creates a password (if new), and is added as a member
4. Expired — If not accepted within 7 days, the invitation expires
For Existing Users
If the email matches an existing user:
1. The recipient clicks the invitation link
2. They see the invitation details
3. They confirm acceptance
4. A new membership is added to their account — they can now switch between their memberships
Invitation Link Sharing
Every invitation generates a unique link that can also be shared directly (e.g., via Slack or internal messaging). The link format is:
```
https://pawatch.com/invitations/accept/{token}
```
This is useful when email delivery isn't reliable or when you want to onboard users quickly.
Managing Invitations
Viewing Invitations
Go to the member management page to see all pending and accepted invitations:
- Pending — Sent but not yet accepted
- Accepted — User has joined
- Expired — Past the 7-day window
Cancelling an Invitation
To cancel a pending invitation:
1. Find the invitation in the list
2. Click Cancel
3. The invitation token is invalidated immediately
Consulting Tenant Restrictions
For consulting tenants with a Basic license:
- Client account users can only be invited to the default account
- The AllowClientAccess flag on the license controls whether invitations to non-default accounts are permitted
- Upgrade to Consulting Pro for full multi-account invitation access
Bulk User Sync with Entra ID
If your organization uses Microsoft Entra ID, you can sync users in bulk instead of sending individual invitations:
1. Go to Members in the account section
2. Click Sync Entra Users
3. All users from your Entra ID directory will be created as Account Users
This requires Entra ID to be configured in your [tenant settings](/docs/entra-id-sso).
