Inviting Workspace Members
Rive offers free and paid workspaces.
Collaborating with others is easy with workspaces to work on a project or track progress.
There are three different types of workspace members:
- Editor: can view and edit all files in the workspace
- Admin: can add and remove members to the workspace as well as edit and view all the files in the workspace
- Viewer: can view the files but cannot edit them
You can invite someone to your workspace during or after workspace creation.
Inviting during workspace creation
Name your workspace.
Invite your workspace members. You can select the role for the workspace member in the dropdown once you’ve entered in their email address.
If you type in the wrong email address or add someone you don’t wish to add, you can remove them before creating the workspace.
Click on “Create Workspace.”
When the workspace is created, invites are emailed out to each person you added to your workspace.
On the right sidebar, you can see the status of your workspace. In this case, the team is Free and each person who has been invited has not accepted their invite yet. Any outstanding invite will have “pending” behind it. When they accept the invite, the “pending” status is removed.
The role for each member is listed. You can change their role by clicking on it and selecting a new role from the dropdown menu.
Inviting After Workspace Creation - Free Workspace
If you have an active workspace (either free or paid) and would like to invite someone to join, there are two ways to do this:
- You can invite them directly from the editor.
- You can invite them from your Account page.
To invite someone from the editor, locate the workspace information on the right side. Click on the “Invite” tab to get started.
This opens up a new tab where you can invite members to your workspace.
Enter the individual’s email address and click “Add.” Once you click “Add,” the email address will appear below, allowing you to select the type of workspace permissions you want to grant that person. You will also see a list of current members in your workspace and the cost of adding a new member to the team. Since this is a free team, there is no cost associated with adding a new member, regardless of their role.
Click “Confirm” to send the person an invite to your workspace.
Once you click “Confirm,” you will be redirected to the Workspace page in your account. This shows you what type of workspace you have and everyone you have invited to your workspace.
If you have multiple Rive accounts with different email addresses (e.g., a work email address account and a personal email address account), log out of Rive BEFORE accepting the invite. Regardless of the email address the invite was emailed to, clicking to accept the invite will connect to the Rive account you are currently logged into.
Inviting After Workspace Creation - Paid Workspace
Subscribe to a paid workspace.
Inviting someone to a paid workspace can be done in the editor. On the right-hand sidebar, click on “Manage Workspace.”
This takes you to the workspace page of your account.
In the Members section, click “Invite Members.” Enter the email addresses of those you wish to invite to the workspace. After clicking “Add,” select the role for each person.
Once you click on “Confirm & Pay, ” you will be charged a pro-rated amount. Editors and Admins count as paid seats, while Viewers are free. You can add as many of each role as you need.
After clicking “Confirm & Pay,” invitations will be emailed to each person, and your card on file will be charged. You will then be directed to the account page.
You can see your billing cycle and your next bill as long as no additional changes are made.
We recommend that people create a free Rive account before accepting the emailed invite. If you have multiple Rive accounts with different email addresses (e.g., a work email address account and a personal email address account), log out of Rive BEFORE accepting the invite. Regardless of the email address the invite was emailed to, clicking to accept the invite will connect to the Rive account you are currently logged into.
Inviting From the Account Page
You can also invite people from your Account page.
Make sure you select “Manage Workspace” and the correct workspace. “Create new Workspace” will create a completely new workspace.
In the Members section, click on “Invite Members.”
From here, you enter the email address of each person you wish to invite to the workspace. Once you click on “Add,” you can select each person’s role.
Once you click on “Confirm & Pay, ” you will be charged a pro-rated amount. Editors and Admins are paid seats, while viewers are free. You can add as many of each role as you need.
After clicking “Confirm & Pay,” the invites are emailed to each person, and your card on file is charged. You are then directed to the account page.
If you are adding people to a free team, there is no charge for any role.
You can see your billing cycle and what your next bill will be as long as no additional changes are made. If you add people to a free workspace, there is no charge, and the next payment amount will be $0.
