How to Add Guests to your Webflow Workspace

‍

Welcome to your essential guide for managing your Webflow Workspace. Whether you're new to Webflow or looking to streamline your workflow, this guide will help you collaborate with external partners like Paddle Creative.

First thing’s first: the plans - if you want to know more about Webflow plans, have a read of this resource. If you're on a Workspace plan—whether it's a Starter plan, or Agency/Freelancer plans—you have the ability to invite guests to your Workspace without incurring any additional costs. These guests won’t affect your Workspace seat count. On plans such as Starter, Core, Growth, Freelancer, or Agency, you can invite up to 2 guests per Workspace. For Enterprise Workspace plans or if you're an Enterprise Partner, you can extend this to up to 10 guests. Additionally, irrespective of your Workspace plan, you can be a member of up to 100 Workspaces, enabling you to manage multiple projects and collaborations effectively.

How to invite a guest into your Workspace

There are a number of people who can invite guests to your Workspace, these are the Workspace owners, admins, and members, these people can also remove guests from the Workspace. However, guests do not possess the capability to invite other guests to join a Workspace.

This guide assumes you have already set up a Webflow Workspace account. If you have not, visit Webflow and set up an account and Workspace.

To extend an invitation to a guest for your Workspace, follow these steps:

1. Name your Workspace to your business name so external partners know who’s workspace they are accessing.

2. Navigate to the Account dropdown menu located in your Dashboard.
3. From this menu, select ‘Workspaces’.
4. Choose the specific Workspace where you wish to add the guest.
5. Proceed to the Members tab, then select ‘Agency or Freelancer Guests’.
6. Click on ‘Invite guest’.
