If your account is targeting PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance and the user you are inviting is relying on SSO (Single Sign-On), you need to check that the SSO setup for the user you are inviting is also PCI compliant.

Once this has been confirmed, you need to select the appropriate SSO options for the user you are inviting as shown in the image below:

  • For new users: Allow the invited email to register through Google/GitHub/Microsoft. 
  • For existing users: Allow users who have signed up through Google/GitHub/Microsoft to accept the invitation. 

Click Invite. You should see the pending invitation listed in Open Invitations table. Invitations expire after 3 days, and you may not have more than 10 pending invitees at any one time.

Update

Accept the invitation and link to the main account

Your newly invited user will receive an email like this:
