Add or remove seats and manage members

Learn how to manage seats and members in your Workspace.

A seat is an available spot for a team member to join your Workspace. Owners and Admins can add or remove seats from the Workspace’s Team settings to create a flexibly-sized, collaborative environment. You can choose from three seat types, based on which Workspace role the teammate will take.

Compare the types of seats

Each seat type is associated with workspace roles that you can set when you assign the team member.

How to manage Workspace members

Team members fill available seats in your Workspace. You can add a new member to an open seat or remove a member to free up a seat for someone else. If you don’t have an open Full or Limited seat for a new team member, you can add them and purchase a seat for them to fill during the invite process.

Add a member to your Workspace

To invite a new member to fill a seat in your Workspace:

1. Go to the Workspace’s Team settings
2. Click Invite member
3. Type in the member’s email address, choose their Role, and choose if they Can publish
4. Click Review if your Workspace plan supports site-specific access
5. Click Invite if you have an open seat or Pay & invite if you’re purchasing a new seat

The member will receive an email notifying them that you have invited them to your Workspace. An “Invite pending” status also displays in the Workspace’s Team settings until they accept your invitation.

Before the member has accepted your invitation, you can click the “three dots” icon next to the member’s role and choose Cancel invite or Resend invite.

You can manage the roles and permissions of members who join from the Workspace’s Team settings.
