Inviting team members

Team plans can have a total of 5 members, which means you can add 4 additional members to your team.

To invite others to join your Team plan:

  1. From the People tab, click the Invite Team Member button.
  2. Select an existing collaborator by clicking the + icon next to their name. If you have not collaborated with the individual previously, in the last field, enter their email address.

Revoking invites

Sometimes you may need to revoke an invite that was sent.

If the person has not yet accepted the invite, you can navigate to the People tab, hover over their email address, and click Cancel Invite.

If they have already accepted the invitation and you need to remove that member from the team, follow the instructions below: Removing team members

Removing team members

It is not possible to remove someone from a Freehand document they have previously viewed. Even after removing them from the team, they will still have access to the Freehand.

To remove users from your team:

  1. Navigate to the People tab.
  2. Hover over the member and click View Profile.
  3. Beneath the member's name and profile icon, click the ••• (more) menu.
  4. Click Remove from Team.
  5. To confirm, click Yes, Remove from Team.

If you navigate back to the People tab, you should notice that the member is gone.

Transferring prototypes to the Team plan

If your team members need to transfer pre-existing prototypes into the Team plan, they can follow the instructions in this article: How do I transfer my prototype to a Team plan?

Creating prototypes on the Team plan

When creating a new prototype, team members will have the option of assigning the prototype to their personal plan or the Team plan. For complete instructions, check out the article How do I create a prototype on a Team plan?

If you are the team owner, prototypes can only be created under the Team plan.

Sharing prototypes with only read & comment access available

If you want to share a prototype with read/comment access only, we suggest sending a public share link.
