User Seats

The Bitwarden web app can be used to add members to your organization. To ensure the security of your organization and secure sharing of data, adding new members is 3-step process designed to maintain end-to-end encryption:

• Invite: Admins issue emails to users, inviting them to join the organization.

• Accept: Users interact with email invitations in order to begin joining the organization.

• Confirm: Admins confirm that the accepted users are authorized to join the organization.

To invite users to your organization:

1. Log in to the Bitwarden web app and open the Admin Console.

2. Navigate to the Members view and select the  Invite member button:

   

3. On the Invite member panel:

   • Enter the Email addresses where new members should receive invites. Add multiple members at one time by comma-separating email addresses.

   • Select the Member role to be applied to the new members. Member role will determine what permissions they will have at an organizational level.

   • In the Groups tab, select which groups to add these users to.

   • In the Collections tab, select collections to give these users access and what permissions they should have for each collection.

     note

     Bien que le rôle de membre ne puisse être défini qu’au niveau d’un membre individuel, les autorisations peuvent être définies pour un membre individuel ou pour un groupe dans son ensemble. Les autorisations définies au niveau d’un membre remplaceront les autorisations définies au niveau du groupe.

4. Click Save to invite the designated members to your organization.
