Accept an invitation
Open the link from the invitation email, create an account if needed and become a member with “Join”.
Purpose
By accepting, you become a member of the organization, with the role stated in the invitation. From then on you see the knowledge your role and your departments allow.
How it works
- In the email “Einladung zu Universe Memory”, click “Einladung annehmen”.
- Without an account, “Create account” opens: create an account with the invited email address and confirm the address. With an account, choose the “Sign in” tab.
- The “Accept invitation” page opens.
- Under “Your name in the team”, check the name colleagues will see you under.
- Click “Join”. “You have joined the organization.” appears.
- Microphone only after your click
- Four-eyes principle
- Data in Frankfurt am Main
- Every approval in the log
Fig. 1 Roles and departments determine who may read which visibility scope; the database checks this on every access.
If it does not work
“This invitation is no longer valid or is for a different email address.” appears if the invitation has expired or has already been accepted, or if you are signed in with a different address. Sign in with the invited address or ask for a new invitation.
After joining
The new organization becomes the active organization. If you already belong to several organizations, you switch via “Switch organization” in the overview. If you were already a member, your previous role remains unchanged.
Tips
Open the invitation link and the confirmation link in the same browser; then Universe Memory takes you straight to the invitation after confirmation.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account first?
No. If you have none, the invitation link takes you to “Create account” and afterwards back to the invitation.
Can I accept the invitation with a different email address?
No. The account's address must match the invited address.
