# Invite members to a Space

> How to add colleagues or whole groups to a Collabase Space and choose their role: Space Admin, Manager, Member or Viewer.

You add people to a Space in the space settings. Only people who already have a Collabase account can be added. If a colleague has no account yet, ask your administrator to create one under **Admin → Users**.

## Add a member

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Space Settings → Members">
    Click **Add Member**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Search for the person">
    Type a name or email address.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a role">
    Select **Space Admin**, **Manager**, **Member** or **Viewer**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Add">
    The person has access to the Space right away.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Add a whole group

A group gives all its current and future members the same role in the Space.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click Add Group in the Members tab">
    Select the group from the list. Administrators manage groups under **Admin → Groups**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a role">
    The role applies to everyone in the group.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Save">
    When someone joins or leaves the group, their access to the Space changes with it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Space roles

| Role            | Typical access                                                      |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Space Admin** | Manages members and settings. Full access to all apps in the Space. |
| **Manager**     | Manages projects and sprints, approves content.                     |
| **Member**      | Creates tasks and pages, logs time.                                 |
| **Viewer**      | Reads content.                                                      |

The exact rights of Managers, Members and Viewers come from the Space's Permission Scheme.

<Note>
  Projects have their own member list. To give someone access to a project, add them under **Project → Settings → Members**.
