# Adding Users

Users make up the backbone of any platform and when harnessed correctly, can share knowledge, generate content and spread information in a far more effective manner than simple curated content.

### Invite a User

The easiest way to add someone to the platform is via the admin interface which will automatically send the individual an email *invite* with a link to create an account. The user’s username will be their email address and they will be able to set a password after clicking the activation link from the invite.

*Watch the video below for a demonstration on how to add users to the platform via invite.*

After the invite has been sent, an email will be sent to the address you entered. Once your invitee has received the email, they will need to click the link included and fly over to the platform to create a password. Their email address can be used with the password they enter to access the platform again at a later date.

You may be wondering if you’re able to change the wording of the invite email. You absolutely can, and we will be covered in **Notifications**.
