How do I invite people to my vault?

What can people in the vault see and do?

Once someone has accepted your invitation, you will need to provide them with access to any documents, people, places, and things that you want them to be able to see. By default, they have no access to anything in your vault.

You can also give them additional permissions that allow them to add, edit, or delete any items that have been added to your vault. For more information regarding permissions, please review the linked article.

Can I resend or cancel a pending invitation to someone?
