# Accept a workspace invite

When a teammate invites you to a Lumicast workspace, you get an email with a link. Follow it to join the workspace and start collaborating.

## What you need

- The invite email from Lumicast — subject line starts with _"You've been invited…"_.
- Access to the email address the invite was sent to. Invites are bound to a specific address and can't be accepted with a different one.

## Step 1 — Open the invite link

Click the **Accept invite** button in the email. It opens Lumicast in your browser at a URL that looks like `app.lumicast.com/invite/…`.

Lumicast then checks whether you already have an account for the invited email.

## Step 2a — You don't have a Lumicast account yet

You'll be redirected to **Register**, with the email pre-filled. Set a password and complete sign-up. As soon as registration finishes, Lumicast accepts the invite for you and drops you into the new workspace.

## Step 2b — You already have a Lumicast account

You'll be redirected to **Log in**. Sign in with the same email address as the invite. Lumicast accepts the invite automatically and switches you into the new workspace.

::: warning Wrong email signed in
If you're already logged in under a different email than the invite, Lumicast logs you out and sends you to the login page with the correct email pre-filled. Log in with that email and the invite resumes.

## Step 3 — Confirm you're in

After accepting, you land on the workspace dashboard. Check the workspace name in the top-left — it should match the one the inviter mentioned.

To switch between multiple workspaces you belong to, use the workspace picker in the top-left.

## Troubleshooting

**"This invite no longer exists"** — the invite was revoked or already accepted. Ask the inviter to send a new one.

**Invite email didn't arrive** — check spam. If it's not there, the inviter can re-send it from **Workspace → Users** by clicking the pending invite and pressing _Resend_.

**You want to change which email the invite was sent to** — the inviter needs to revoke the original invite and send a new one to the right address.

## What you'll see next

What you can do inside the new workspace depends on the permissions the inviter gave you. See [User Permissions](/features/workspace-permissions) for the full breakdown, or [Workspace Settings & Team](/features/workspace-settings) for how invites and roles are managed.
