Invite multiple Users

You can invite users from your organization’s People module, regardless of whether or not invitees are part of your organization.  You can also invite Users using the Data loader functionality by uploading Excel (xls, xlsx) or csv files. The Data Loader uses API calls for its functionality and therefore adheres to the API governance and specifications defined by AdaptiveWork. 

When you add users to your People list, you're inviting them using the specific email address used in the invitation to your organization. 

Who can do this? 

Your organization's Admin user can define whether new users may be added by any internal user, Admin and Super users, or Admin users only, which is done in the Organization, Users, Licenses section of the System Settings.

  1. Go to the People module.
  2. Click Invite User. The Invite User window opens. 

  3. Click Advanced. The Advanced Invite User window opens. 

  4. Enter the email addresses of a user to invite, and press ENTER on the keyboard to add another User. Alternatively,  click Import from File and select a CSV, XLS or XLSX file.   Note that Users have a unique identifier (ID) and the same email address as another User in the organization. 

    If you invite a user with the wrong email address, and they end up creating a new account, you'll need to re-invite the user with their correct email and remove access for the other account. If they create any data while logged in with the wrong account, that content will still exist but will remain associated with their wrong account. 

    Accepting invitees who are not part of your organization are issued a 30 day temporary license, and you (the inviter) are notified of the acceptance by email. Your organization's Admin user is notified and can setup the User with licensing and other system settings. 
  5. Edit individual users as needed.
  6. Click OK.

    People invited to AdaptiveWork receive an email invitation with links for initial ‘set up and activation’ of their new AdaptiveWork account; a one time only procedure. The invitation is valid for 72 hours.
