This allows teammates to automatically become part of your Workspace as soon as they create an Expensify account using their work email address. + +Here's how it works: If a colleague signs up with a work email address that matches the email domain of a company Workspace owner (e.g., if the Workspace owner's email is admin@expensify.com and the colleague signs up with employee@expensify.com), they will be able to join your Workspace seamlessly without requiring a manual invitation. When new members join the Workspace, they will be set up to submit their expense reports to the Workspace owner by default. + +To enable this feature, go to **Settings > Workspace > Group > *Workspace Name* > People**. + + +# FAQ +## Who can invite members to Expensify +Any Workspace Admin can add members to a Group Workspace using any of the above methods. + +## How can I customize an invite message? +Under **Settings > Workspace > Group > *Workspace Name* > People > Invite** you can enter a custom message you'd like members to receive in their invitation email. + +## How can I invite members via the API? +If you would like to integrate an open API HR software, you can use our [Advanced Employee Updater API](https://integrations.expensify.com/Integration-Server/doc/employeeUpdater/) to invite members to your Workspace.
