Summary
Inviting teammates from the Invite dialog adds them to your Asana workspace and can give them access to projects straight away. It is the first step to working on tasks together instead of alone.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1
Click Invite
From the Home page, click **Invite** at the bottom of the left sidebar. A dialog titled **Invite people to My workspace** opens over the page.
Step 2
Enter your teammate's email
Click the **Email addresses** field and type your teammate's email address, then press Enter to add it. You can add more than one address. The **Send** button stays unavailable until an address has been added.
Step 3
Choose projects to share (optional)
Use the **Add to projects** field to pick the projects your teammate should join. In this capture the dialog already listed **Work requests**. Leave the field as it is if you only want to invite the person to the workspace.
Step 4
Send the invite
When the address and projects look right, click **Send** to send the invitation. Check the email address once more before you click, because the invite goes to exactly what is in the field.
Why this matters
You have set up a project and now need a colleague to pick up tasks in it. Inviting them from one dialog, with the right project already selected, means they can start working without waiting for you to share things separately.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to add projects when I invite someone?
No. The Add to projects field is optional. Choose projects there if you want the person to start with access to specific work.
Can I invite more than one person at once?
The Email addresses field accepts addresses you add one after another, so you can add several people before you click Send.
