  6. Fill out the “First Name” field.
  7. Fill out the “Last Name” field.
  8. Select a language from the “Language” dropdown.
  9. Choose a role for the user. Under each role you should see a description of the role which will let you know how much access each role gives the user.
  10. Optionally, you can select whether the user is required to setup 2FA to access the shared buckets, files and folders with the “Force User To Setup 2FA” checkbox.
  11. Check the “Enabled” checkbox to enable the users access.

Once you’re done the user should receive an email with an invitation.
