Overview

Once your office is set up, it’s time to add the best part: The people! This doc will explain how to add and remove members. For a step-by-step guide for launching Gather in your organization, check out our Pilot Guide.

To Add Members

1. Open the Main Menu and click Invite to office

2. Make sure the Members tab is selected

3. Click Copy and share the link with your team to add them as Members

Add Members Based on Domain

When someone enters your office through a Meeting Link or Guest Link, they can be automatically upgraded to a Member if their login email matches your company domain(s).

(Admins Only) To enable/disable this setting:

1. Open the Main Menu (Gather logo) in the left sidebar.

2. Go to Settings > Security.

3. Adjust the toggle to enable/disable this feature.

4. If enabling, enter the email domain(s) you want to automatically upgrade.

To Deactivate Members

1. Open the Main Menu (Gather logo) in the left sidebar.

2. Go to Settings > Manage members.

3. Find the member you want to remove and click on the three dots.

4. Select Deactivate Member.

This instantly removes the user from the office and they’ll be notified they no longer have access to this space. They may try to check-in as a Guest.

Best Practices

• The Member role is best for regular teammates so they can claim their own desk and immediately enter the office without checking in.

• The Guest role is best for temporary visitors, such as clients or candidates, who may join for a meeting but don’t always need access.
