Invite your team
Invite people by email, change their role, and remove them when they leave.Site admins invite people by email. Each invitation works only for the Google account with that email address.
Send an invitation

- Select Invite.
- Enter their Email and select Send invitation.
To open Settings, select your name and picture at the bottom of the sidebar, then choose Settings. On a phone, open the navigation drawer first.

They'll get an email with a link. It expires after seven days. They can also enter your site's address in Knit to join without the email.
Use the address they sign in to Google with. The invitation works only for that account.
Join an invited site
Open the site's address or the link in the invitation email. If needed, sign in with the Google account matching the invited email address. Knit opens the site and adds it to Your sites. You don't need to find the email first.
You don't need your own early-access approval to join someone else's site.

Invitations that haven't been accepted yet appear under Pending invitations, with when they expire. Select Resend to send a fresh link (the old one stops working) or Revoke to cancel it.
Roles on a site
- Admin: manages the site (its name, people, and plan) and is an admin of every open workspace.
- Editor: can write and edit in every open workspace.
New people join as editors. To change someone's role, choose Admin or Editor next to their name on the site's People page. The site's owner is always an admin.
The site's People page: the site owner, an admin, and an editor, each with a role choice. Everyone but the owner has Remove.
On every plan, a workspace can also give one person a different role, or keep people out. See Workspaces.
Remove someone
On the site's People page, select Remove next to their name, then Remove again to confirm. They lose access to every workspace on the site. Their pages and edits stay, shown under their name and marked as removed. Admins can change that name under Removed people.
