Frequently asked questions

Why can't I change my email address?

Email addresses are used as unique identifiers and can't be changed after registration. If you need a different email, you'll have to create a new account.

A team member didn't receive their invitation email. What should I do?

Ask them to check their spam or junk folder. If it's not there, send a new invitation. Some organizations have email filtering that may block invitation emails.

Who can invite new team members?

Users with Admin or Editor roles can invite new team members. Reviewers and Auditors can't send invitations.
