How to invite team members to Bonsai

You can invite team members to your Bonsai account to collaborate on projects, manage tasks, and track time. Each team member is assigned a role that determines what data and features they can access.

Please note that when you add a team member, your subscription will automatically be updated to include an additional seat, billed at the same rate as your current plan for each new user.

Adding and removing team members

  1. Click your profile icon on the top left hand corner.

  2. Click Team page.

  3. Click 'Invite Member'

  4. Enter the team member’s email address.

  6. Send the invitation.

To remove a team member:

  • Go to the Team page.

  • Select the team member > (...)

  • Choose the option to Deactivate them from the account.

What happens after you invite a Team member

  • The invited user receives an email invitation to join your company.

  • They must accept the invitation to gain access.

  • Until accepted, their status will appear as “Invite Pending.”

Important Notes

  • Access is not granted until the invitation is accepted.
