62This page is intended for **Administrators** responsible for managing system permissions and workspace security. This section covers the stages of user management: adding new users, changing permissions, and removing accounts.<br>
For Administrators, it helps to think of the Invites and Users sections as two different stages:
- **The Invites List:** People who have been asked to join but haven't logged in yet.
- **The Users List:** People who have already joined and are currently using Equalify.
## Invites
### Inviting users
1. Navigate to Account > Invites.
1. Enter the email address of the person you want to invite.
1. Click Invite.
- A success banner will confirm the action.
- The user will receive an email with a login link.<br>

Once the invited user logs in (via SSO or another authentication method), Equalify automatically adds them to your workspace.

```important
⚠️Important: If your Equalify instance uses Single Sign-On (SSO), invited users must have an email address from an authorized workspace domain (e.g., @uic.edu). If not, you will receive an error.
```

⚠️Important: If the user is already in the system, a duplicate invite will not be sent.

### Deleting pending invites
User invites can be removed for any reason before a user logs in:

1. Find the email address you want to remove.
1. Click Delete.

## Users
### Changing user roles
You can control what a user can see or do by changing their role:
1. Find the person’s name in the Users list.
1. Click the dropdown menu in the Type column.
1. Select a new role:
- **Member:** Can view and contribute to content but cannot manage other users.
- **Admin:** Has full access, including the ability to invite or remove others.
1. The change is immediate, and a confirmation will appear. No "Save" button is required. The user will see the change the next time they login to Equalify.<br>

### Verifying join dates
If you need to confirm when a person first accessed the system, check the Created At column. This shows the exact date they accepted their invite and established their account.<br>

### Removing a user
If a person no longer needs access to the system:
1. Find the user in the list.
1. Click the Remove button (in red).
1. A success banner will confirm the action.
-The user will be logged out and will no longer be able to access the system.
