# Invite a user to your organization

To collaborate on projects, you need to invite users to join your organization. Invitees receive an email and can accept the invite to gain access.

> **Info:** This action is only available to members of the **Administrators** team.

1. From the profile drop-down menu in the top right corner, navigate to **Organization Settings**, then select **Access Management**.
2. From the **Invites** tab, click **Invite User**, then enter an email address. Invitees automatically join the [**Everyone** team](/mkio/how-to/managing-your-organization/access-users-and-teams#manage-teams), but you can also invite them to an additional team.
3. Click **Add**. Your colleague will receive an invitation in their mailbox.

> **Info:** The invitation appears as _Pending_ until accepted. Pending invitations can be re-sent or canceled. Invitations expire after 14 days.

## Accept an invitation

If an Administrator invites you, you will receive an email containing an MK.IO invitation link.

1. Follow the link in the email.
2. Log in using one of the following options:
   - **Microsoft account**: make sure you have added a [verified contact email address](https://app.mk.io/user/profile).
   - **Continue with email**: use the email address the invitation was sent to, or create a new account. If you create a new account, you will receive a verification code by email.
3. You will be redirected to a page prompting you to accept the invitation. Click **Accept**.

If you do not see an invitation to accept, confirm that your [verified contact email address](https://app.mk.io/user/profile) matches the address the invitation was sent to.
