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 member of the workspace can invite — including plain Members. The only rule is that you can’t invite someone at a higher role than your own.

  • Members invite at the Member role only.
  • Admins and the Owner can invite as Member or Admin.
  • The Owner role is never created through an invite. It’s set when the workspace is created and only changes through ownership transfer.

On the Free plan every member is effectively an Admin, so a Member on Free can invite at any role except Owner. Once you upgrade to a paid plan, the per-role rules above apply.

How to invite

  1. Go to Administration → Members.
  2. Click Invite Members.
  3. Enter the email addresses you want to invite. You can paste a list.
  4. Pick a role for each invitee. Members see only “Member” in the role picker; Admins and the Owner see both options.
  5. Click Send Invite.

Each invitee gets an email with a link to join the workspace. Once they accept, they show up in your Members list with the role you assigned. 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 leave, in a contract dispute, or otherwise needs to pause access without leaving the workspace for good, Admins and the Owner can suspend them. A suspended member can still log in, but every action in that workspace is blocked. Their own Private shortcuts stay theirs; the workspace appears in their picker with a Suspended badge. Unsuspending puts everything back exactly as it was.

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.

The Owner can’t be suspended or removed directly. To remove the Owner, the current Owner transfers ownership first and then leaves.

Best practices

  • Use work email addresses so people land in the right workspace automatically when they sign up.
  • 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.
