Inviting team members

Send email invites from Settings, accept invites at /accept-invite, and understand Team plan seat limits.

Last updated July 13, 2026

Team collaboration is available on the Team plan. Invite colleagues by email so they can access your shared workspaces, scan history, and reports.

Prerequisites

  1. An active Team plan subscription (including free trial)
  2. Available seats — Team plans include 10 seats (see Seat limits)
  3. The invitee's email address

Free and Monitoring plans are limited to 1 seat (the account owner). Upgrade from Billing (/settings/billing) or the pricing page.

Send an invite

  1. Open Team settings

    Sign in, click your email at the bottom of the sidebar, and choose Settings — then open the Team tab (/settings/team). You can also jump straight there from the command palette (⌘K / Ctrl+K).

  2. Enter an email and click Invite

    Type your teammate's email address and click Invite. Parsivex sends a branded email with the Parsivex logo, an Accept invite button, and a secure link to join your team. The message shows who invited them, your account name, and when the invite expires.

    The seat usage meter shows how many seats are in use, including pending invites that have not been accepted yet.

  3. Track pending invites

    Pending invites appear under Pending invites with an expiration date. Invites expire 7 days after they are sent. You can Revoke a pending invite to free the seat before it is accepted.

    When someone accepts your invite, Parsivex emails you a short confirmation with their name and a link to Settings → Team (/settings/team) so you can see them on the roster.

Accept invite flow

When a teammate receives the invite email, they follow this flow:

  1. Click Accept invite in the email

    The email opens /accept-invite?token=… in Parsivex when they click Accept invite (or the link in the message). Each invite has a unique token tied to the invited email address.

  2. Sign in or create an account

    If they are not signed in, Parsivex redirects to login and returns them to the invite page afterward. The Parsivex account email must match the invited email address.

  3. Join the team workspace

    After accepting, Parsivex adds them to your account and switches them into your team's default workspace. They land on the dashboard ready to view scans and reports.

Seat limits

Seat limits by plan:

PlanSeats
Free1
Monitoring1
Team Plan10

A seat counts as:

  • Each user who has accepted an invite and joined the account
  • Each pending invite that has not been accepted or revoked

When you reach the limit, the invite form is blocked and the seat meter shows you are at capacity. Revoke unused pending invites or remove members (contact support) to free seats.

What invited members can access

Invited members join your account, not a single workspace in isolation. Once they accept:

AccessDetails
All workspacesSwitch between every workspace on the account using the workspace switcher in the app sidebar
Scans & reportsView scan history, open reports, and run new scans (subject to plan features and monthly scan limits)
SettingsManage integrations and workspace preferences for workspaces they switch into
Team featuresUse remediation scripts, anomaly alerts, Slack alerts, and other features included in your Team plan

There are no separate admin vs. member roles today — every seat has equal access to the account's workspaces and data.

Alert recipients vs. seats

Team plan admins can add external alert recipients from workspace alert settings (up to 10 per account, shared across workspaces). These are people who receive monitoring and anomaly emails but are not workspace members:

Team member (seat)External alert recipient
Can log inYesNo
Uses a seatYesNo
Receives alert emailsYes (automatically)Yes, after email verification
Can view scans/reportsYesNo

External recipients must confirm via a link in a verification email before Parsivex sends them any alert content. If they ignore the email, they receive nothing further. Pending invitations expire after 7 days.
