Change the default invite permissions for guests, members, and admins.
On Business Plus and Enterprise Workspaces, there are a variety of default settings that can be changed. These plans can also create Custom Roles.
Enterprise Workspaces can set advanced permissions.
Invite permissions
Invite permissions is currently in beta. Once the beta concludes, invite permissions will be turned on by default for Workspaces on all plans.
Invite permissions are available on all plans.
Following are the two invite permissions:
- Invite Members: Permit members to invite new members to the Workspace.
- Invite Guests: Permit members to invite new guests to the Workspace. Before the invite permissions beta, this was a custom role permission available on Business Plus and Enterprise Workspaces.
Manage invite permissions
Make sure you have all the info. Take a look at our article Charges for inviting members and guests to learn about pricing.
Following is how the invite permissions work with the default permissions:
Members can invite members and guests | Admins can invite members and guests |
By default, members can invite members and guests. Owners and admins can manage the member permission for inviting members or guests. |
By default, admins have permission to view and manage all members and guests in a Workspace. This includes adding and removing users, changing roles, and managing invites. To turn on the Invite Members permission for admins, the Workspace owner must turn off the Manage Users custom role permission. Both invite permissions limit the admins' role to only inviting new members and guests. |

To turn the settings off or on:
- In the upper-left corner, click your Workspace avatar.

Custom Role Permissions
Custom Role Permissions are available on our Business Plus and Enterprise Plans. Custom Role Permissions allow you to edit the default Workspace settings.
- Owners and admins can edit member permissions.
- Owners can edit admin permissions.
- Some permissions are either on or off by default and cannot be edited.

Invite permissions and the Manage Users custom role permission
The Manage Users permission lets users view and manage all members and guests. Invite permissions are narrower and only allow users to invite other users.
The following table explains the differences between these similar settings:
