User Invitations
- Account Admin, Regional Admin, or Multi-Account (admin role) access
- Active Bitwards Mobile Access account
Overview
The User Invitations page is the primary tool for adding new users to your Bitwards Mobile Access account. It supports two workflows: sending email invitations for self-registration, or creating user records directly without email (for physical card-based access scenarios).
Key Capabilities:
- Email-based invitations — Send registration links to new users with role assignment
- Direct user creation — Create user records immediately without email for card-based access
- Pending invitation management — Track, resend, and configure outstanding invitations
- Pre-configure access — Assign user groups and access rights before the user completes registration
- Multi-account support — Users with the User role can be added to multiple accounts using the same email address

Features
Invite New User Form
The invitation form has two sections: required fields on the left and optional information on the right.
Invitation form showing mandatory fields (Email, User role) and optional information
Mandatory Fields:
- Email (*) — The recipient's email address for sending the invitation
- User role (*) — Role assignment dropdown: User, Account Admin, Regional Admin, or Installer
Optional Information:
- First name and Last name — For complete user identification
- Member of / organization — Organizational affiliation or department
- Additional information — Free-text notes about the user
Optional Card Information:
- Card ID — NFC card identifier (hexadecimal or decimal format, selected via checkbox)
- Surface ID — Secondary identifier for recognizing the card
Form Actions:
- Send — Processes the invitation (button activates when the mandatory role field is completed)
- Discard changes — Clears all form fields
With email: Fill in the email address and role, then click Send. The user receives a registration link and completes signup independently. Without email: Fill in only the name and role (no email), then click Send. The user record is created immediately — useful when distributing physical NFC cards.
If a user with the User role already exists in another account, inviting them to your account adds them as a member. They can then access resources from multiple accounts with a single login (since release 2.8.0).
Pending Invitations Table
All outstanding invitations appear in the table below the form until recipients complete registration.
Pending invitations table with action buttons and pagination controls
Table Columns:
- Name (sortable) — User's full name
- Email (sortable) — Invitation email address
- User Group — Assigned group (if configured while pending)
- Role — Assigned role
- Invite sent (sortable) — Date and time the invitation was sent
- Actions — Resend, Add to a user group, Give new rights
- Delete — Trash icon to remove the pending invitation
Action Buttons:
- Resend — Retransmit the invitation email to unresponsive recipients
- Add to a user group — Assign the pending user to a group so permissions activate upon registration
- Give new rights — Pre-configure specific access rights or resource group assignments
You can assign user groups and access rights to a pending invitation before the user registers. When they complete registration, all pre-configured permissions activate automatically.
Deleting a pending invitation removes only the invitation record. It does not affect users who have already completed registration.
Pagination
The table supports configurable pagination with rows per page, page navigation controls, and dual pagination (controls at both top and bottom of the table).
