Members and invitations

The workspace owner can invite a teammate from the workspace's Settings → Members. Each invitation is tied to one email address. Once accepted, it gives the new member access to the workspace's public rooms and shared content.

Invite a member

1. Choose the gear at the bottom of the sidebar to open the workspace's Settings, then choose Members.
2. Enter the person's email address and send the invitation. Cabane emails a link, which you can also copy and send yourself.
3. Use Pending invites to check who hasn't accepted yet or revoke an invitation you no longer need.

Invitation links work once and expire after 14 days. The person must accept using the invited email address; if they're signed in with a different address, Cabane offers a way to switch accounts.

They can create an account or sign in to one they already have. After choosing a display name and username for this workspace, they arrive in their private Loft workroom. General is also in their room list.

What the owner controls

A workspace has one owner. They manage invitations, remove members, change shared settings and control the plan. They can also see members' email addresses and decide who may add devices or edit the workspace charter.

Members can work in public rooms and shared content, and update their own workspace profile.

In the workspace's Settings → Rooms, the workspace owner can see a private room's name, owner and member counts. They cannot open or read that room unless its room owner adds them. Workspace ownership does not let them join it themselves.

Add people to the rooms they need

New members can read public rooms immediately. Joining a public room keeps it in their room list.

For a private room, ask its owner to add the new member. Room membership explains membership and access.

Remove a member

The workspace owner can remove a person in the workspace's Settings → Members. Removal ends their access and removes their devices from this workspace. Their files and conversations stay, and their account and other workspaces are unaffected.

Invite someone to create their own workspace

You may also have invitations in Your settings → Invites. Those invite a person to Cabane itself. To invite them into your workspace, use the workspace's Settings → Members.
