GovTribe

Manage GovTribe users and invites

Invite account users, resend pending invites, remove users, and resolve common invite issues.

Use the Account page when you need to add people to a GovTribe subscription, resend an invitation, remove an account user, or understand why an invitation cannot be accepted.

Limits for users vary by plan; see Choose the right GovTribe plan.

Who can manage users

Only the account owner can invite users, resend pending invites, remove users, or change account settings. Other users can open the Account page to see who manages the account and contact that owner for account changes.

Account user limits come from the current GovTribe plan. If the account is already at its user limit, GovTribe blocks new invites until the owner removes an existing user or changes to a plan with a higher user limit.

Invite a user

Open Account. Use the user menu to open the Account page.

Review the user limit. Confirm the account has room for another user in the Manage Users section.

Open the invite form. Choose User to open Invite User to GovTribe.

Enter the user's details. Add the person's name and the email address they should use for GovTribe.

Send the invite. GovTribe sends an email with instructions for finishing account setup.

The invited person appears with a Pending badge until they accept the invitation and finish setup.

Use the right invite email

Invite the person at the work email address they should use for GovTribe. Personal, disposable, shared, undeliverable, or blocked email domains can prevent the invite from being created or accepted.

If GovTribe rejects the invited email address, confirm the address is typed correctly and belongs to the person you want to add. If the rejected address is a legitimate work email, collect the account name, invited user's name, invited email address, and the exact error message before contacting support.

For the same work-email rules that apply during registration, see Troubleshoot GovTribe account access.

Manage pending invites

Standard account invite links expire after 14 days. If a pending user cannot find the email, waited too long, or says the link no longer works, use Resend Invite on that pending user. After you resend during the current page session, the button changes to Invite Resent.

Ask the invited user to accept the newest invite email. Older invite links can fail after a resend because GovTribe expects the current invitation token.

If the user appears active but still shows as pending, confirm they accepted the newest invite with the invited email address. If they used an alias or a different email address to register, support may need to review the user record before the pending status can be resolved.

When the user already has a GovTribe subscription

An invited email address can already belong to another GovTribe account, trial, or paid subscription. GovTribe may block the invite or prevent automatic account reassignment so one user's access is not moved between accounts without review.

Before contacting support, confirm:

  • The exact email address that should join your account.
  • Whether the person has an existing GovTribe login.
  • Whether that login belongs to a paid subscription, trial, or another organization.
  • Whether the person should keep access to the old account or move to the new one.

Support can review account reassignment options when the account owner provides that context.

Remove a user

Use Remove next to a user to open the remove-user confirmation dialog. Confirming removes that user's access to the account and the account workspace.

The account owner cannot be removed from the Manage Users table. GovTribe shows Account Owner instead of a remove action for the owner row.

When a user is removed, GovTribe also removes that user's workspace notification settings. If the removed user owns published workflows in the account, GovTribe pauses those workflows so they do not keep running under a removed user.

Transfer account ownership

The account owner controls plan changes, billing details, user management, and account settings. GovTribe does not treat ownership transfer as the same action as removing a standard user.

If the current owner left the company, no longer monitors the invoice email, or cannot manage users, contact Customer Success with the account name, current owner email, requested new owner email, and any billing or renewal deadline tied to the change.

Resolve common invite issues

  • If the account is at its user limit, remove an inactive user or change to a plan with more users before sending another invite.
  • If the invite was not received or the link expired, resend the invite from Account and ask the user to open the newest email.
  • If GovTribe rejects the invited email address, confirm the user's work email, then review account access troubleshooting.
  • If the user cannot accept because they signed in with another email, already have a GovTribe account, or need access moved from another subscription, review Troubleshoot GovTribe account access.
  • If the owner needs to leave the account, contact Customer Success to review account ownership transfer options.

What to send support

If support needs to help, send the account name, the invited user's email address, whether they accepted an invite, and the error or behavior they saw. Do not send passwords or verification codes.
