# Manage workspace editors and app users

> Manage workspace editors, internal app members, and external users from one place.

## Overview

The Users area brings workspace editors and the people who use each app into one place. From a workspace, click the `Users` button to the left of the workspace selector.

There are three types of access to manage:

  <Card title="Editors" icon="user-pen" color="#FFC738">
    People who can create, edit, and view the database and every app in the workspace.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Internal app members" icon="building" color="#FFC738">
    People in your Zite organization who have **Use Access** to a specific internal app.
  </Card>

  <Card title="External users" icon="globe" color="#FFC738">
    People outside your organization who have signed up or been added to an external app.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Choose the right view

Use the side menu to switch between `Editors`, `Roles`, and the individual apps in the workspace.

| View | Who appears | Scope of access |
| - | - | - |
| **Editors** | People who can build in the workspace | The database and every app in the workspace |
| **Internal app** | People in your organization with **Use Access** | The selected internal app |
| **External app** | People outside your organization who signed up or were added | The selected external app |

Choose `Editors` when someone needs to build or manage the workspace. Choose an individual app when someone only needs to use that app.

## Manage editors

Editors have workspace-wide access. They can create, edit, and view the database and every app in the workspace.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Users">
    Click `Users` to the left of the workspace selector.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Editors">
    Under **Workspace**, select `Editors`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review or invite editors">
    Search or filter the list to find someone. Click `Invite` to add another editor.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The Editors table shows each person's name, email address, role, and workspace access. Use this view for people who need to build or manage the project, rather than people who only need to use one app.

## Manage internal app members

Members of internal apps are people in your Zite organization who have **Use Access** to that app. They can use the selected app without becoming an editor for the whole workspace.

<Info>
  Managing access separately for individual internal apps is available on **Team** and **Enterprise** plans.
</Info>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Users">
    Click `Users` to the left of the workspace selector.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select an internal app">
    Under **Internal apps**, select the app whose members you want to review.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Manage its members">
    Search or filter the list, or invite someone who needs **Use Access** to the app.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Access is managed separately for each internal app. Giving someone **Use Access** to one app does not make them an editor or give them use access to every other app in the workspace.

## Manage external users

External users are people outside your Zite organization who have signed up or been added to an external app.

External-user access belongs to the selected app; it does not give someone editor access to the workspace, its database, or its other apps.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Users">
    Click `Users` to the left of the workspace selector.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select an external app">
    In the side menu, select the external app whose users you want to review or invite.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invite a person">
    Click `Invite` and add the person.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The invite modal includes a **Send invite emails** checkbox. It is checked by default.

* Leave it checked to email an invitation. The person is pending until they accept, and they appear with a **Pending** badge.
* Uncheck it to add them as an **active** user immediately, without an invitation email. Use this when you will share the app link another way, or when the person already knows how to sign in.

The button label is `Send invite` when the checkbox is on, and `Add person` when it is off. The confirmation message also follows whether an email was sent.

The person appears in the user list as soon as you add them, even if they haven't opened the app yet. When they accept an invitation with a sign-in link, they are signed in without needing a second confirmation email.

<Note>
  **Send invite emails** appears only on the public/external app Users invite modal. The Editors invite modal is unchanged.
</Note>

Use the app's [authentication settings](/help/platform/access/authentication) to control how people sign in and who can sign up. Customize the invitation email template in [Notifications and emails](/help/platform/access/notifications).

## Search and filter users

Each view has its own user list. Use the search field to find someone by name or email address, and use `Filter` to narrow the results.

Make sure you select the correct view before inviting or reviewing someone:

* Select `Editors` for workspace-wide building access.
* Select an internal app for organization members who need **Use Access** to that app.
* Select an external app for people outside your organization who use that app.

## Invite links

When you invite people to your organization, you can share an invite link instead of adding each person separately.

* Any member can create a **member-level** link. Only admins can create an **admin-level** link.
* View-only members cannot change a link's access level.
* You cannot take over another member's live invite link.
* Turn a link off to revoke it. Anyone with that URL can no longer join.
* Turn a link back on to create a new URL. The previous link stops working.

Each app also has invite links in its `Share` menu. See [Share to web](/help/platform/access/share-to-web).
