Invitations

Invitations let you bring people into your organization by email. Recipients click a one-time link in the email, register (or sign in), and are automatically attached to your org with the right access level.

How to Invite Someone

  1. Go to Users → Users and click Invite user, or Users → Invitations and click Invite user
  2. Enter their email address
  3. Choose Invite User As:
    • Staff — full access to the app and managing work
    • Client — limited access via the Client Portal only
  4. (On paid plans) Review the per-seat charge notice — adding a user adjusts your Stripe subscription quantity by one seat
  5. Click Send invitation

The recipient gets an email with a one-time link valid for 7 days.

What the Recipient Sees

  • If they have no HollowPurple account yet, the link takes them to a registration form pre-filled with their email. After registering, they're automatically attached to your org and their email is treated as verified (the invite link itself is the proof).
  • If they already have an account, they're prompted to sign in and accept the invitation.

Pending Invitations

The Users → Invitations page lists every invitation sent for your organization, with:

  • Email
  • Staff? — whether they were invited as staff or client
  • Expires at — invites expire after 7 days
  • Accepted — shows when (or if) the invite has been accepted

Resending an Invitation

If someone's link expires, or they never received the email:

  1. Find the invitation in the list (only non-accepted invites can be resent)
  2. Click Resend
  3. Optionally update the email address or staff/client choice
  4. Click Resend in the modal

A fresh token is generated, the expiry resets to 7 days from now, and a new invitation email is queued.

Cancelling an Invitation

Use the row's delete action to revoke a pending invite. The link in their email will stop working immediately.

Plan Limits

  • Free plan — capped at 3 total users. Once you've hit the cap, the Invite user button warns you and the send is blocked even if the UI is bypassed.
  • Paid plans — unlimited users; each new user is one billable seat.

See Plans & Billing for details on per-seat charges.

Tips

  • Invitations are per organization. Inviting the same person to two orgs sends two separate invitations.
  • If a user is already a member of the org, the invite is rejected with a friendly notice.
  • Sending a new invite for an email that already has a pending invite replaces the old one.
