How To Invite Someone to Slack

Use this interactive demo to learn how to add a new member to your Slack workspace.

Quick summary

To invite someone to Slack, open your workspace menu, select the "Invite people" option, enter their email address, choose their access level (member or guest), and click Send Request. The invitee will receive an email notification to join your Slack workspace.


Steps

  1. Click on the arrow near your workspace name to open the workspace menu.
  2. From the drop-down menu, select the "Invite people to..." option.
  3. Enter the email address of the individual you wish to invite.
  4. Choose whether to invite them as a member (full access) or as a guest (limited access to Slack channels, files, and directory).
  5. Click Send Request to complete the invitation — the person will receive an email with the request in their inbox.

📌 Why this matters

Inviting the right people to your Slack workspace is a critical first step to enabling real-time team collaboration. Slack's built-in invite flow lets workspace admins add new members or guests in under a minute, with granular access controls to protect sensitive channels and files. Whether you are onboarding a new employee as a full member or bringing in an external contractor as a guest, the invitation process ensures every collaborator has exactly the right level of access from day one. Mastering this workflow helps teams get up and running faster and keeps Slack workspaces secure and well-organized.
