Add members or guests to an organization
Who can use this feature
Available on the Organization and Enterprise plans
There are a few ways to add members and guests to an organization:
- Domain capture: all Figma accounts with company emails are added to the organization
- Invite members or guests to teams, projects, or files
- Add members to the organization
- Add members to your identity provider (SAML SSO)
Some methods are only available to members of the organization and not guests.

Members have an email address that matches any of the organization's verified domains. Members can access shared resources in the organization, including teams, fonts, libraries, and plugins.
Guests are external users with an email address outside the organization. They can be contractors, agencies, clients, or external collaborators with external email addresses. Guests can only access the resources you explicitly invite them to.
Domain capture
Domain capture makes sure anyone using Figma with a company email gets added to your organization. This applies to anyone with any existing Figma account, as well as anyone who creates a new Figma account using their company email.
Invite people to teams, projects, or files
Invite a member or guest to a file, project, or team to add them to your organization. Any member or guest can invite someone to a resource at or below their permission level.
For example: someone with view access can only invite others with view access. Someone with edit access can invite someone with view or edit access.
Note: Anyone you invite with can edit access is included in the organization's billing.
Add to the organization
Organization admins, billing group admins, and workspace admins can also invite members to the organization from Admin. Organization admins can also invite guests directly to the organization if the guest membership setting is set to Guests can only join the organization with admin approval.
Figma will give everyone you invite via this process a provisional viewer seat. You can update their seat type to viewer-restricted or full once they've accepted their invite.
