How to invite team members

Invite teammates to your Orbin workspace, choose their role, change roles later, and understand the seat limit for your plan.

Last updated

To invite a teammate, go to Settings → Workspace, scroll to Team members, enter their email address, choose a role, and click Invite. They do not need an Orbin account yet: the email lets them create one and join.

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Workspace and go to Team members.
  2. Under Invite a teammate, enter their email address and choose a role: Admin, Member, or Viewer.
  3. Click Invite. Orbin emails them a link.
  4. Your teammate opens the link, creates an Orbin account or signs in using the same email address, and clicks Accept invitation. They are added to the workspace with the role you chose.

Only workspace Admins and Owners can invite people.

Roles

RoleWhat it is for
OwnerFull control of the workspace, including deleting it and managing other Owners
AdminManages the workspace: connects and removes social accounts, handles billing, invites and removes teammates, changes roles, and sets up AI Autopilot and comment replies
MemberDoes day-to-day work: creates, edits, schedules and publishes posts, uses AI generation, and approves comment replies and Autopilot drafts
ViewerView-only. Can see the calendar, posts and analytics, but cannot create, edit, schedule or publish posts or use AI generation

Ownership is never given through an invitation. Only an existing Owner can grant the Owner role.

Pending invitations

Invitations that have not been accepted appear under Pending invitations in Team members. From there you can:

  • Resend an invitation. Orbin emails a new link and the old one stops working.
  • Cancel an invitation so its link can no longer be used.

An invitation link works once and expires after 7 days. If your teammate sees "Wrong account", they are signed in with a different email address than the one you invited. They can sign out and continue with the invited address, or you can invite the address they use.

Change a role or remove someone

In Team members, use the role menu beside a person to change their role, or the bin icon to remove them. Admins and Owners can do this. Only an Owner can change another Owner's role or remove an Owner, and the last Owner of a workspace cannot be demoted or removed.

Seat limits

The number of team members depends on your plan, and the Team members card shows how many you are using, such as 5 of 10. Pending invitations count toward the limit, so you cannot invite more people than your plan has seats for. If you reach the limit, Orbin asks you to upgrade your plan before you can invite more. See Pricing for the limits and Billing & subscriptions to change plans.
