# Inviting Users

If you have a Teams plan you can invite other users to your Hava account. By default all invited users are assigned the **Member** [account role](/collaboration/rbac.md), which gives them basic account access. To give them access to workspace content you will need to either assign them to a [workspace](/collaboration/workspaces.md) directly or add them to a [team](/collaboration/teams.md) that is assigned to a workspace.

To invite and add users, click on **Account Settings** using the dropdown at the top right of the page and click on the **Members** link.

### Invite User

Enter the email address of the member you want to invite, select a role, and click **Add**.

**Existing User:** If their email address exists in our database, they'll be sent an email letting them know you've invited them to your account. Once they follow the link in the email they'll be able to access your account.

**New User:** If their email is not in our system, they'll be sent an email inviting them to join Hava. Once they follow the link in the email and set up their account they'll be able to switch between their account and yours.

If the user doesn't receive their invite email you can click **Re-invite** to resend it.

### Assigning an Account Role

After inviting a user you can change their account role from the Members page. Click their current role to open the role selector and choose a new role. See [Roles & Permissions](/collaboration/rbac.md#account-roles) for a description of each role.

### Assigning Workspace Access

Newly invited users are automatically added to the default workspace as a **Viewer**, so they can see its content straight away. If you have created additional workspaces, you will need to add them to those separately — they won't have access by default.

You can grant access to additional workspaces directly or via a team:

* **Direct:** Go to the workspace in Account Settings and add the user with a workspace role. See [Workspaces](/collaboration/workspaces.md#adding-a-user-to-a-workspace).
* **Via a team:** Add the user to a team, then assign that team to a workspace. See [Teams](/collaboration/teams.md).

### Access The Primary Account

In Hava every user has their own personal account with its own default workspace. When you invite a user to Hava and they sign up they will have their own personal account, as well as access to your account.

This can lead to confusion after being invited to your account when you first log in. You can switch between accounts you are a member of from the **Account Settings** area. You can use the workspace dropdown in the top menu to switch between workspaces across any of the accounts you belong to.

### Trial & Upgrade Notification

If you don't already have a paid personal account and you've been invited to a Hava team account as a new user.

**When you first log in, you will see a notification that states**:

* You have X many days left on your trial
* Your trial has expired. Please upgrade.

{% hint style="info" %}
This can be ignored as it's associated with your single personal account and not the team account you've been invited to.
{% endhint %}

### Switch Between Accounts and Workspaces

Hava supports belonging to multiple accounts at once. To switch accounts, go to **Account Settings** and select the account you want from the account switcher. From there you can manage workspaces, teams, members and other account settings based on your role.

You can use the **workspace dropdown** in the top menu to move between workspaces. The workspace dropdown shows all workspaces you have access to across the account you are currently viewing.
