Add members

CONTENTS

If you are new to LINE WORKS or a new member joins, you can add a member as in the following.

  • Administrator adds members directly from the Admin
  • Member registers with the shared LINE WORKS invitation link

There are two ways for the administrator to add members: 'Add Member' to add each member one by one and 'Add Members in Batch' to add up to 100 members at once.

However, for the Free plan, you can add up to 30 members.

For members to use LINE WORKS

  • When an administrator adds a member directly from the Admin, the added member must change or create a password.
  • If a member registered directly through the invitation link, the administrator can approve the member's request to register.
