# Inviting users

{% hint style="info" %}
System Administrators and Registry Administrators can be invited to the system by a System Administrator. Registry Maintainers and Registry Contributors for an organization can be invited by a Registry Administrator for the organization the users are being invited to.
{% endhint %}

Inviting a user sends them an email with a link to create their own account. You choose their roles when you invite them.

## Sending an invitation

1. Go to the **Settings** page from the sidebar.

2. In the **User Accounts** section, click **Invite User**. You can also click **Manage Accounts** and then **Invite User** at the top of the list, which lets you first check that the person doesn't already have an account.

## Accepting an invitation

The invited person receives an email with a link. The link opens the **Create Your Account** page, where they enter their details, choose a username and password, and submit the form. They can then log in with the roles they were invited with.
