User Invites

Send an invite

POST/invites/{id}/actions/send

Sends a draft invite: it becomes invited, expires in 30 days, records its sent date and emails the invitee after commit, never on dry_run. An invited one is already sent: nothing happens (200, no email or event); use resend. A completed or revoked one returns 409 invalid_state; one with no linked user returns 422 invite_has_no_user. Emits invite.sent. Undo with revoke. Advisor invites are 404 for callers who may not escalate, internal_user invites for personal tokens without create-new-user or super admin.

Path parameters

  • idstring (uuid)Required#

    The invite's id, a uuid. An unknown invite, or one outside the token's organisation, returns 404.

Query parameters

  • dry_runboolean#

    Validate and run the call without committing it, returning what the real call would return with meta.dry_run set.

Headers

  • Idempotency-Keystring#

    Makes a retry safe. Send a new UUID for each new request and reuse it only to retry that request; the first response is replayed for 24 hours.

Responses
