Invite Members
Lora workspaces are built around shared shortcuts. Once you have a few to work with, the natural next step is bringing in the rest of your team.
Who can invite
Every active member can invite by default, including Members and Moderators. The Workspace Owner can enable Restrict invitations to Admins, which limits sending to Admins and the Owner.
The current invitation form always assigns the Member role. An Admin or Owner can change the person’s role after they join. The Owner role is never created through an invitation; ownership changes through the member-management flow.
Free workspaces allow at most 20 active members and pending invitations combined. Paid plans do not apply this member cap.
Enterprise organizations can disable invitations completely. While this option is active, nobody can send a new invitation.
How to invite
- Go to Administration → Members.
- Click Invite Members.
- Enter the email addresses you want to invite. You can paste a list.
- Click Send Invite.
Each invitee gets an email with a link to join the workspace. Once they accept, they show up as a Member. If their email already belongs to a workspace member, Lora returns a clear error instead of creating a duplicate.
Managing pending invitations
Pending invitations live in Administration → Members until they’re accepted, revoked, or they expire. From there you can resend or revoke any pending invite.
Suspending and removing members
When someone is on parental leave, taking a sabbatical, or otherwise away for an extended period, Admins and Owners can suspend them without deleting their account. A suspended person cannot sign in to or open that workspace. Their Lora account and Private shortcuts remain in place. Restoring the membership gives them access again.
To remove someone permanently, use the Remove action on their row. Their Workspace and Unlisted shortcuts stay in the workspace. If they own any Private shortcuts, Lora prompts you about those before the removal completes, so the workspace doesn’t quietly lose access to them.
An Owner can’t be suspended or removed directly. Another Owner must be assigned first.
Best practices
- Use the address the person will use to sign in. An email domain does not place someone into a workspace automatically; the invitation grants access.
- Lean toward inviting at Member, not Admin. Admins can change billing on Basic and Business, suspend other people, and edit any shortcut that isn’t Private — promote when there’s a reason to.
- Start with a small pilot. Five or ten people creating shortcuts give you a useful sample of what slugs and folders your workspace actually needs before you open the doors to everyone.
