How do I add members?

In this article:

Add members from the Admin panel

Adding members is the first step in setting up your WeVideo license. To give your teachers, students, and staff access to WeVideo, they'll need to join your organization and consume a license to gain access to your subscription.

If a student or teacher logs into their account and is prompted to upgrade, or they can't access all of the features, then they're most likely on a personal free account and need to be added to your organization. 

 

Access the Members page from the Admin panel

Navigate to the Admin tab

Add members by

Invite code

The invite code method is a great way to provide access to students and teachers that already have an existing WeVideo account. Users on personal free accounts or trials can easily apply the invite code to join your organization.

Copy the invite code and share it with the user you would like to add.

You can uncheck Automatically accept members to manually approve users under Pending in the Admin --> Members tab before they join your organization. Otherwise, users will automatically join after applying the invite code.

To join with the invite code, users must sign into their personal free account and select Apply code.

Note: If a student or teacher already started a trial, they can still use the invite code to join your organization with their existing account. They simply need to select Join existing school license and paste the invite code.

If this user does not have an existing WeVideo account, they can select No, I am new to WeVideo to create a new account and join your organization. Alternatively, if this user already has an existing WeVideo account, they can select Yes, I have an account to log in and join your organization.

Import from CSV

The import from CSV method allows you to upload a CSV file to create accounts for many new users all at once. Please note that this method is utilized only for creating new accounts; it can't be used to add existing users.

If you see an error notifying you that an email is already taken, that's because the email is already associated with an existing account. For these users, you'll need to provide the invite code or registration link so they can join your organization.
