**Invite a User**

Learn how to invite users to your Confidence workspace.

If you're not using SSO, you must [invite a user](/docs/platform/iam/users.md#invite-users) to give them access to Confidence. Inviting a user sends them an email with a link to create an account.

> [!NOTE]
>
> To invite a user to Confidence, you must have the `Admin` role.

## Invite a User

**1. Go to Users**

Go to Confidence. On the bottom of the left sidebar, select **Admin > Users**.

**2. Click Invite a colleague**

**3. Enter details**

In the dialog, enter the email address of the user you want to invite and which roles you want to assign them.

**4. Send invitation**

Click **Invite** to invite your colleague.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Invitations expire after 7 days. If the user doesn't accept the invitation within 7 days, you must invite them again. You can manually expire an invitation by clicking the trashcan icon next to it.
