Every Stockpress account comes with unlimited users so you can invite everyone you work with to your workspace without additional costs.

Tip: Before you add a user to your workspace, make sure that you are okay with them being able to log in and see all of your current and future Open Collections and files. If you don't, consider creating an external share link.

Inviting users to your workspace

There are two ways to invite a user to your Stockpress workspace.

  • From the Quick add link in the top-right-hand corner of your workspace

  • From the Users area in your settings

Inviting users from the quick add modal

To quickly invite a user, click the user + icon in your header and select Invite new user.

Invite a new user

This will bring up the quick add modal.

From there fill in the following:

  • The user's first and last name

  • Their email address: When a user is created, an introduction email is automatically sent to them with details about how to log in and set their password - so you must use a valid email address.

  • Select their user role: You must select one of our preset roles, or a custom user role (if applicable)

  • Add them to a Team or Teams (optional): This new user will automatically have access to all files that the selected Team(s) have access to.

Tip: Uncheck the Send the new user a welcome email to activate their account checkbox if you are not ready to invite the user to the workspace right away. You can send an activation email at any time for your Settings area.

Click save and your new user will be added.

Inviting users from your settings

You can also invite users from your settings area. There are more advanced options available there such as enabling 2FA.

To access the users' area, click on your user icon in the top-right corner of your workspace and select All Settings or click the Users link in the menu.

Access your settings area from the user dropdown

Click on Users in the settings area of your workspace.

Invite users from settings

From within the users' area, you can edit an existing user or add a new one by clicking the + Invite user button at the top-right corner of the page.

From there you can add:

  • The user's first and last name

  • Their email address: When a user is created, an introduction email is automatically sent to them with details about how to log in and set their password - so you must use a valid email address.

  • Phone number (optional)

  • Job title (optional)

  • Photo (optional)

Click save to invite the new user.

Tip: Uncheck the Send the new user a welcome email to activate their account checkbox if you are not ready to invite the user to the workspace right away. You can send an activation email at any time for your Settings area.

Role and Teams tab

Now you can set your new user's role and add them to a Team(s).

Role and Teams tab in your user settings

Role: Click on the Role and Teams tab to select the new user's role. You must select one of our preset roles, or a custom user role (if applicable). You can change this role at any time.

Add them to a Team or Teams (optional): This user will have immediate access to all files and Collections that these Team(s) have access to.

Editing, deactivating, or switching to users

Edit or deactivate users

To edit a user, click on their name or the three-dot icon in the list view in the User settings area and select edit.

To deactivate a user, select deactivate. All of the user’s assets will still be available in your workspace, but they will no longer be able to log in or receive notifications and they will be removed from all teams as well as the user list when sharing or giving access.

If a user you want to deactivate owns files and Collections in your workspace, you can assign them to another user before deactivating.

If you are an admin role within your workspace, you can switch to a user and user Stockpress as them by clicking switch to user.
