Invite someone

What it is

You can bring someone onto the team, or let an outside person open just one drive as a Guest. A Guest sees that drive and nothing else on the team, until the end date you set.

How to

Invite to the team (Owner or Admin)

1. Open the Team page and press Invite.
2. Type their email and choose a role: Guest, Member or Admin (only the Owner invites Admins).
3. For a Guest, set Can view or Can edit on each drive they open, and how long they stay a Guest with Guest for.
4. Press Send invite. They sign in with that email, then you approve their device in Account.

Invite a Guest to one drive

1. Open the drive, then its Access tab, then Add people.
2. Type their whole email. The row reads "Not on the team. Joins as a Guest who sees only <drive>." Press it.
3. Pick Can view or Can edit. A Guest can edit at most. Choose when access ends.
4. Press Send invite, then confirm. They get an email with the drive, the level and the end date.
5. Under Invited you can see the invite. Press Take back to cancel it before it is used.

If something goes wrong

• "Only an Owner or Admin invites someone new." Ask one of them.
• "<Name> is already on <team> as a Member." Add them from the team instead. Nobody was invited.
• "Too many invites" Wait a while, then try again.
• Offline. Nobody was invited. Your typed address stays. Press Try again.
• "Already sent." An open invite exists, so no second email goes out.
