How to Invite & Manage Team Members in FirstSales

Invite teammates with the right role and workspace access, track and cancel pending invites, and onboard whole companies with invite links or domain allowlists.

  1. Open Settings → Team

    Team management lives under Settings → Team. It's a tabbed panel: Members, Invitations, Groups, Links, and Domains. Which tabs you see depends on your permissions: you need invite rights to see Invitations and Links, and org-settings rights for Domains.

  2. Invite people

    On the Invitations tab (or Invite on the Members toolbar), open the Invite team members drawer. Each row is one invitee: an email and a role. Click Add another to invite several at once, then Send invitations.

    One Workspace access setting applies to everyone in the batch: grant all workspaces or pick specific ones.

  3. Choose the right role

    FirstSales has five roles, from most to least access:

    • Owner (full access including billing and org transfers. Can't be assigned by invite (there's one, set at creation).
    • Admin) manage members, settings, and all workspace content.
    • Manager: manage campaigns, contacts, and workspace content.
    • Member: standard access to campaigns and contacts.
    • Viewer: read-only.

    You can only grant roles at or below your own level.

  4. Track and cancel pending invitations

    The Invitations tab lists each invite with the invitee's email, who sent it, when, its role, and a status: pending, accepted, expired, or cancelled. To pull one back, hover a pending row and cancel it: you'll confirm before it's revoked.

    There's no "resend" button: to re-invite someone whose invite expired, cancel it (if still listed) and send a fresh one.

  5. Manage existing members

    The Members tab shows everyone with their role, a workspace-access pill ("All workspaces" or a count), and an active/suspended status. The row's kebab menu lets you Edit workspace access, Suspend/Unsuspend, or Remove: each gated by your permissions, and never available on your own row or an owner.

  6. Share an invite link

    For open onboarding, use the Links tab. Create a shareable join link with an optional permission group, a max uses cap (blank = unlimited), and an expiry in days (blank = never). Anyone with the /join/… link joins under those settings. Revoke a link anytime: that can't be undone.

  7. Auto-join by email domain

    To onboard a whole company automatically, add your domain on the Domains tab. Anyone who signs up with an email at an allowed domain is auto-assigned up to a max role you set (member, viewer, or manager: not admin). Remove a domain and new signups from it stop auto-joining.

Pro tips

  • Invite least-privilege, upgrade later

    Start people at Member or Viewer and raise them if they need more. It's easier to grant access than to explain why someone had too much.

  • No resend: cancel and re-invite

    There's no resend button. If an invite expires, cancel the old one and send a new invitation rather than hunting for a resend that isn't there.

  • Invite links for cohorts, invites for individuals

    One-off hire? Send an invitation. Onboarding a whole team or agency? A capped, expiring invite link saves you typing every email.

  • Domain allowlist for company-wide rollout

    If everyone shares a company domain, the Domains allowlist auto-assigns new signups a role: no per-person invite needed. Cap the max role sensibly.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I invite team members?

Settings → Team → Invitations (or the Invite button on the Members tab). The drawer lets you add multiple email+role rows and set one workspace-access scope for the batch.

What roles are available?

Owner (full access, not invitable), Admin, Manager, Member, and Viewer (read-only). You can only assign roles at or below your own level.

How do I cancel an invitation?

On the Invitations tab, hover a pending invite and cancel it (you'll confirm first). Only pending invites can be cancelled.

How do I resend an invite?

There's no resend action. If an invitation expired, cancel it and send a new one from the invite drawer.

Can I limit someone to specific workspaces?

Yes. The invite sets a workspace-access scope (all or specific workspaces), and you can later Edit workspace access from a member's kebab menu on the Members tab.

How do I onboard a whole company at once?

Add your email domain on the Domains tab so new signups auto-join up to a max role, or share a capped, expiring invite link from the Links tab.

How do I remove or pause a member?

On the Members tab, open a member's kebab menu to Suspend/Unsuspend or Remove them (subject to your permissions). You can't do this to yourself or to an owner.

Prompt for Claude Code

I'm setting up FirstSales (https://firstsales.io), an AI outbound sales platform: campaigns, contacts, a reply inbox, deliverability and lead signals. Help me get my workspace sending real, good emails end to end, from Claude Code.

Read these first so you know how FirstSales works:
- Developer docs and API: https://developer.firstsales.io
- CLI: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@firstsales.io/cli
- Skills for coding agents: https://github.com/firstsalesio/firstsales-skills (read README.md and GUIDE.md)

Setup
1. Install the CLI: npm install -g @firstsales.io/cli
2. Install the FirstSales skills:
   claude plugin marketplace add firstsalesio/firstsales-skills
   claude plugin install firstsales@firstsales
3. Ask me if I already have a FirstSales account. If not, send me to https://app.firstsales.io to sign up.
4. Ask me to create an API key under Settings → API → API Keys, with only the scopes we need.
   Never ask me to paste the key into this chat. Tell me to run this in my own terminal, so the key stays hidden:
   read -rs FS_KEY && firstsales auth login --api-key "$FS_KEY"; unset FS_KEY
5. Run `firstsales whoami` and tell me which workspace and organisation we are connected to.

Then ask me about my business: what I sell, who I sell to (roles, company size, countries), my best customers, and what I use today for outbound (tools, lists, mailboxes). Walk me through:
1. Teaching FirstSales my business: website, offer, proof points and case studies in the knowledge base, so the AI writes like someone who knows the product.
2. Connecting my sending mailboxes and checking my sending domain: SPF, DKIM, DMARC and warm-up. If anything is unhealthy, tell me the exact DNS record to add.
3. Bringing in contacts: import my CSV or CRM export into a clean list, remove duplicates and bad emails, and block domains I must never email (customers, competitors, my own).
4. Building my first campaign: the right list, senders, steps and timing. Write the sequence with me, show me the drafts, and do not launch until I say yes.
5. Setting up Signals if it fits: find people engaging with LinkedIn posts about topics my buyers care about, and turn them into leads.
6. Inviting my team and giving each person the right access.

Once campaigns run, show me how to work the reply inbox from here: which replies need an answer, draft responses in my voice, and move good conversations into deals. If I use Cal.com, connect it so follow-ups can offer my booking link (not the first email).

Throughout, as you learn about my business, proactively suggest and help create:
- Reply templates for the questions and objections my prospects are likely to raise, based on my product, site and codebase if you can see them.
- Campaign ideas and segments worth testing, with the reason for each.

Safety rules:
- Show every change as a dry run (--dry-run) first and wait for my yes. Never send emails, launch campaigns or delete anything without my yes.
- Tell me before anything that spends credits, and how many.

Be opinionated. If the docs give a sensible default, just use it. Don't make me choose between five options.
