About organization invitations

When you invite someone to become a member of your organization, the person receives an email with an invitation link. To join the organization, the invitee clicks the invitation link in the email.

You can use a person's {% data variables.product.company_short %} username or email address for the invitation.

{% note %}

Note: If you use an email address for the invitation, the invitee will only be able to accept the invitation if the email address matches with a verified email address associated with the invitee's personal account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE."

If an invitee's personal account has been flagged, the invitee won't be able to accept any new or pending invitations to join organizations.

{% endnote %}

If your organization has a paid per-user subscription, an unused license must be available before you can invite a new member to join the organization or reinstate a former organization member. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE."

{% data reusables.organizations.org-invite-scim %}

If your organization requires members to use two-factor authentication, users that you invite must enable two-factor authentication before accepting the invitation. For more information, see "AUTOTITLE" and "AUTOTITLE."

{% ifversion fpt %}Organizations that use {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}{% else %}You{% endif %} can implement SCIM to add, manage, and remove organization members' access to {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} through an identity provider (IdP). For more information, see "AUTOTITLE{% ifversion fpt %}" in the {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} documentation.{% else %}."{% endif %}
