Every team has their own needs. Some need members that can access the shared team knowledge, while others require participation in only one conversation to solve a particular problem or task. That’s where Guest users come in handy.
Inviting Guests to a single conversation will limit the guest access to content shared within the conversation you specify upon invite.
There is no need to worry that guest users will access sensitive data, end up in unrelated conversations, or view the full list of your team space members.
How to invite single-conversation Guests
- Navigate to the People tab clicking the + icon on the left sidebar
- Choose the Guest user type
- Paste or enter emails of people you want to invite
- Choose a Conversation your Guests will join
- Click Send invitations to finish
Note: Every team space can invite Guests to a team space. Please, choose the conversation wisely and mind that it cannot be changed once the Guest is already invited.
How single-conversation Guests are charged
Single-conversation Guests can only access one conversation. Free Plan allows inviting only one Guest to a single conversation.
Upgrading to a Business plan will give you the ability to add up to 3 Guests per 1 paid seat.
For example, you can have 10 paid seats on a Business plan and invite up to 30 single-conversation Guests.
