Intro

You can invite users to join Domo. There are two primary methods for doing this, which are as follows:
  • Standard invite. The Domo interface includes a number of Invite buttons in various locations, including the user Profile page, the card Details view, the Analyzer view, etc. If you have an “Admin” or “Privileged” default security role and you invite a user or users in this way, the new users are brought into Domo as the default role you have set for your instance (if you have not changed the default role, it is automatically set to “Privileged”.) You can also invite users to Domo if you have a custom role with “Add New People” enabled. If you have this role AND “Manage All Roles” enabled, you can invite users to Domo and assign them to any custom role.
  • Social user invite. When you invite a user to Domo using the Invite option found in Buzz, he/or she is given a security role of “Social.” Social users have access only to Buzz, Profiles, and Projects and Tasks, and can invite other Social users to join Domo.

For more information about default security roles, see Managing Custom Roles. Depending on settings, Domo restricts sending invitations to people whose email address contains an authorized domain. For more information, see Specifying Authorized Domains for Invited Users. For information about how an invited user connects to Domo and finishes setting up an account, see Joining Domo. For more information about the Profile page, see Profile Page Layout. For information about adding new users to Domo, see Adding Users to Domo.

Inviting Social users

If you want to invite Social users to Domo (that is, users with access only to Buzz, Profiles, and Projects and Tasks), you can use the Invite button found in Buzz. Users of any security role (including other “Social” users) can invite other users in this way. You can also invite social users in the Admin Settings as described above; however, this method is much quicker.
Note: If you do not want users in your company’s Domo to be able to invite Social users into Domo, you can disable this by going into More > Admin > Feature settings > Buzz and checking the box that reads “Allow all users to invite Social users.” You must have an “Admin” security profile to be able to access this tab. For more information, see our articles about Buzz.
The Invite button for Social users is found at the bottom of the Buzz menu.
When you click this button, a dialog appears with two options.
These options provide two different ways of inviting team members to Domo. If you click the Get Link button, Domo generates a shareable URL you can send to team members via email, text, etc. If you prefer to invite team members one by one, you can do so by entering their email addresses in the Enter email addresses field at the bottom of the dialog. To invite a Social user to Domo,
  1. Click the button in Buzz described above. The Invite Your Team to Buzz dialog appears.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click Get Link, copy the automatically generated link, and send it to your team via email, text, etc.
    • Enter team members’ email addresses one by one in the Enter email addresses field. When finished, click Invite.
      Note: If any authorized domains have been specified in More > Admin > Network security > Authorized domains (for invites), all email addresses you enter must belong to one of those domains. When you begin to type an email address, it autocompletes with all possible authorized domains. If the domain for your entered email address does not appear in the autocomplete list, you cannot invite users from this domain. For more information, see Specifying Authorized Domains for Invited Users.
If you have an “Admin” security role or a custom role with “Edit Users,” “Manage All Access Tokens,” or “Manage All Company Settings” enabled, you can manage all of your automatically-generated invite links (“Easy Links”) in the Admin Settings, under More > Admin > More > Manage easy links.

Here you can see all Easy Links, with the amount of time remaining for each to be active (3 days is the maximum) and the number of uses left (100 is the maximum). You can deactivate a single Easy Link by checking the box next to it then clicking Deactivate. Or, if you do not want to allow Easy Links for security reasons, you can turn off this functionality altogether by clicking the green toggle button next to “Easy links enabled.”

​
Inviting Users with Other Security Roles

You can invite team members to Domo by clicking any of the other Invite buttons found throughout the Domo interface and entering the users’ email addresses. When you invite team members in this way, you can assign them to certain roles depending on your own security role.
  • If you have an “Admin” default security role, you can invite users to Domo with any role, either default or custom.
  • If you have a “Privileged” default security role, you can only invite users to Domo as “Privileged” or “Participant” users.
  • If you have a “Participant” default security role, you can only invite users to Domo as “Social” users (see above).
  • If you have a custom role with “Add New People” AND “Manage All Roles” enabled, you can invite users to Domo with any role, just as if you were an “Admin”-level user.
Some of the locations the Invite buttons are found in are as follows:
  • In the user Profile, under the reports diagram.
  • In the Details view for a card. Depending on your access, you may be able to share the card and invite in a single action.
  • In the Analyzer view for a card.

To invite a user to Domo as “Privileged”- or “Participant”-level,
  1. Click any Invite button in Domo. The Invite Them to Domo dialog appears.
  2. Enter team members’ email addresses one by one in the Enter email addresses field. When finished, click Invite.
    Note: If any authorized domains have been specified in More > Admin > Network security > Authorized domains (for invites), all email addresses you enter must belong to one of those domains. When you begin to type an email address, it autocompletes with all possible authorized domains. If the domain for your entered email address does not appear in the autocomplete list, you cannot invite users from this domain.
