How to Add a Team Member to a Project

Add Collaborators to a Project

1. From the Project Overview landing page, scroll down to the Collaborators section.
2. Enter the email address of the collaborator, click the "I'm not a robot" reCAPTCHA checkbox, and click Send Invite.
This generates an email with the subject "Collaborator Invitation" from "Open Learning Initiative torus-admin@oli.cmu.edu via amazonses.com". 

If you encounter an error "Failed to add collaborators", it is likely that the email has already been added. If the collaborator received the invitation and did not click it, adding the email again will fail despite the new collaborator not being in the list. Please ask the collaborator to:
Please search your inbox for "Collaborator Invitation", an email from "Open Learning Initiative torus-admin@oli.cmu.edu via amazonses.com". Click the Join as Collaborator button and follow the prompts to finish setting up their account and access.
Contact oli-help@cmu.edu for assistance with adding collaborators to a project.

Notes:
  1. For existing authoring accounts, once the invitation is sent, the new collaborators can sign in with an existing authoring account and access the new project. They do not need to click Join in the invitation email.
  2. If the team member does not already have an authoring account with OLI Torus, following the Join button in the Collaborator Invitation email takes them to create an authoring account which is required to be a collaborator.
  3. If the team members do not receive the Collaborator Invitation email, please confirm that the email address is correct and check spam / junk folders in the email account.
