assign one or multiple of the following roles to them in the member settings
tab. Each role will have access to different pieces of the platform depending on
what you choose.

   are deployed. This can be managed by clicking Schedules in the left-hand bar.

    and select the Roles that pertain to them, then click Invite.
    
    
    
    

 3. When you invite a new Member, they will send an email notification to the
    person that was invited from '[email protected]
    [/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#d6a4b3a6baaf96bbb1f8b7a4bfa5a2f8b5b9]' where
    they will be provided a hyperlink to complete signing up as an Administrator
    and have access to the Organization.



> NOTE: Once sent, the login link will expire within one hour. If your member
> attempts to login after that time they may receive the message "Link is
> Expired". If this happens they should have a link on the sign in page that
> will allow them to request a new link. If they run into any further issues,
> refer them to this document: Troubleshooting a "Link is Expired" Error Message
> [/article/1043-troubleshooting-a-link-is-expired-error-message].
