# Sending Invitations in Bulk Source: https://docs.astalty.com.au/guide/users/sending-invitations-in-bulk > Select everyone still waiting on an invitation and email them all at once from the Users page. ## Overview When you're onboarding a team - or you created users without emailing them straight away - you no longer have to open each person's profile to send their invitation. The **Send Invitations** drawer on the [Users](https://app.astalty.com.au/users) page lists everyone who is still waiting on an invitation, so you can pick who to email - up to 500 people at a time - and send to them all in one go. > **Who Can Send Invitations?** > > By default, only **Admins** can send invitations. ## Opening the Send Invitations Drawer Head to the [Users](https://app.astalty.com.au/users) page, click the **Actions** button in the top right, and choose **Send Invitations**. ![The Users page with the Actions menu open in the top right and an arrow pointing to the highlighted Send Invitations option.](https://docs.astalty.com.au/assets/users-send-invitations-actions-menu.png) ## Who Appears in the List The drawer lists every user whose account is still in the **invited** state - in other words, anyone who hasn't logged in and set their password yet. Users who have already accepted aren't listed. ![The Send Invitations drawer listing 7 users waiting on an invitation, each with an Invitation status of Not sent or a sent date, their name and email, and their role. 7 users selected shows above the list, and the highlighted checkbox column has every user selected.](https://docs.astalty.com.au/assets/users-send-invitations-drawer-guide.png) Each row shows the person's first name, last name, email, role, and the status of their invitation: - **Not sent** - the user was created without an invitation email, so they've never been emailed a link. - **Sent \[date]** - an invitation has already gone out on that date, but the user hasn't accepted it yet. People who have never been emailed are listed first, so the ones most likely to be waiting on you are at the top. > **Why Would Someone Show as Not Sent?** > > When you invite a user you can untick **Send invitation email** to create their account without emailing them - see [Inviting Users](https://docs.astalty.com.au/guide/users/inviting-users#confirming-the-invite). The same applies to a [User Import](https://docs.astalty.com.au/guide/imports/user-import) where the **Send Invitation Email** column is set to **N**. Those users show as **Not sent** until you email them. ## Selecting Who to Send To Tick the checkbox next to each person you want to email, or use the checkbox in the table header to select everyone at once. A bar above the list keeps a running count of how many you've selected. Use the **Search users** box to narrow the list by first name, last name, or email. Two things worth knowing about search: - The header checkbox only selects the rows that match your current search, so you can search, select all, change the search, and select all again. - Anyone you've already ticked stays selected when you change the search term, even if they drop out of view. ## Sending the Invitations Click **Send \[number] Invitations** to send. The button stays disabled until you've selected at least one person. Astalty queues the emails and sends them in the background, so the drawer closes straight away and you'll see a confirmation that the invitations are on their way rather than waiting for every email to go out. > **Each Email Contains a Fresh Link** > > Sending an invitation always generates a brand-new link, so this is also the fastest way to fix expired or lost invitation links for a group of people. There's no need to send from each profile individually - although you still can, using **Resend Invite Link** on a user's profile. ## Users That Get Skipped If someone's situation changes between opening the drawer and hitting send, Astalty skips them rather than failing the whole batch. The confirmation message tells you how many were skipped and why: - They had **already accepted** their invitation. - They were **deactivated**. - They are **restricted**. Everyone else in your selection is still emailed. ## Large Teams The drawer loads up to **500** users at a time, and you can send to at most 500 people in one go. If more than 500 people are waiting on an invitation, a note at the top of the drawer tells you how many there are in total. In that case, send to the people listed, then reopen the drawer to pick up the rest - once the first batch has been emailed, the next group moves to the top of the list. ## Nobody Left to Invite If everyone on your team has accepted their invitation, the drawer shows **No invitations to send** instead of a list. That's a quick way to confirm nobody is stuck waiting on an email. > **Looking for Something Else?** > > To add someone new to your account, see [Inviting Users](https://docs.astalty.com.au/guide/users/inviting-users).
