Adding members to a Group

After you’ve created a group, you can start adding members. The members of your group will be able to view and share VoiceThreads in that group space.

There are four ways to add someone to your group:

• Sign-up link
• Add Members button
• Drag and drop
• Manager

Sign-up link

The fastest way to add members to a group is to simply give them the sign-up link. To get the sign-up link for your group:

1. Access the Groups and Contacts page.
2. Click on the group.
3. Click on the button that says “Add Members” under the “Members” tab.
4. Click the “Copy Link” button next to the sign-up link.
5. Paste the link in a convenient location for your members to find it and click on it.

As soon as members click on this link and confirm they want to join, they will be added to your group.

Using the “Add Members” button

If you already have some contacts you’d like to add to the group manually, follow these steps:

1. Access the Groups and Contacts page.
2. Click on the group.
3. Click on the button that says “Add Members” under the “Members” tab.
4. Click the button to add people from your contacts list or another group.
5. Select the names of the people you want to add.
6. Save.

After you add them, they will be listed as pending members.

We will send them an email invitation and give them a pop-up invitation the next time they sign in to their VoiceThread account.

Accepting the invite in either location will make them a full member.

Drag-and-Drop

As an alternative to adding with a button above, you can follow these steps to drag and drop your contacts or other group members into your new group.

1. Access the Groups and Contacts page.
2. Click on “My Contacts” to see your contacts, or click on a group name to see the members of that group.
3. Click on the names of any person you’d like to add to your Group. They will become selected when you click on them.
4. Drag one of the selected members to the name of the group on the left, and let go.

After you’ve dragged them into the group, they will be listed as pending members.

We will send them an email invitation and give them a pop-up invitation the next time they sign in to their VoiceThread account.

Accepting the invite in either location will make them a full member.

Manager

If you have access to the VoiceThread Manager as part of a license, you can also add people to your group there. Details about how to do this are available in the license-specific documentation on the left side of this page.
