Adding members to an organization

ℹ️ This feature is only available to administrators within a Confidencial organization

ℹ️ If your organization uses a third-party identity provider (IDP):

• Users are added to the organization via your IDP “on the fly” (at the time of their first login)

• However, you may still “pre-load” users, generating their encryption keys before their first login; follow the instructions here

If your organization does NOT use a third-party IDP:

• To add members to your organization, follow the instructions here

⚠️ When you use this method to add a member to an organization that does not host its own Confidencial Key Server (CKS), a temporary key pair is generated for their account so users can immediately encrypt content for them. This temporary key is stored in Confidencial’s secure key server. Once the invited user registers their account, they will generate a more secure split key. All subsequent encryptions for them will use the split key. In organizations that host their own CKS, temporary key pairs are stored in the organization’s CKS.

4. Click Send Invites

   1. If you do not see Send Invites but instead see Add Members and Generate Keys, then you are using a third-party IDP. To pre-load members, follow the instructions here.
