Members & invites

Settings → Members & invites is the workspace roster: everyone in the workspace, their role, and every invite still waiting to be accepted. Owners and admins manage it; members can view it.

  1. Choose Invite.
  2. Enter an email address or a phone number — SMS invites are first-class.
  3. Optionally add a first and last name. Names you set here are locked for the invitee, and drive their address when the workspace uses a fixed address format.
  4. Send.

Each invite generates a one-time link. The recipient gets it by email or text, and it also appears in the pending list so you can copy and share it yourself (in a chat, for example).

Accepting is one step even for people new to Knobs: the invite doubles as sign-up — they pick a password, get their address on your domain, and land in the workspace. The contact you invited them at is pre-verified as their recovery contact. Details in Invite your team.

The pending list shows every unaccepted invite with who sent it and when. From here you can:

  • Copy the invite link to re-share it.
  • Revoke an invite — the link stops working immediately.
  1. Find the member in the roster.
  2. Change their role: owner, admin, or member.

Role changes take effect immediately. See the Admin overview for what each role can do — note that admins and owners have implicit access to every doc, sheet, and calendar in the workspace.

Removing a member ends their access to the workspace immediately: they lose the workspace from their switcher, their session there ends, and they’re dropped from every group roster. Their mailbox and content aren’t destroyed — mail they sent, docs they created, and messages they posted remain, so nothing your team depends on disappears.

  • Free plan: up to 3 members. Invites beyond the cap are declined until the workspace upgrades.
  • Paid plans: seats are unlimited; each member is a billed seat, and seat count adjusts automatically as people join and leave. See Billing.
