Introduction
When a new user is invited to CAREFUL or when their contact details are changed, they receive an invitation link via email or SMS. These links expire for security reasons. If a user's invitation has expired or hasn't been verified, you can resend it so they can complete their registration and access the platform.
Before You Start
For Admins/Team Owners resending invitations:
- You must be an Organization Administrator, Team Owner, or System User
- The user must be unverified (they haven't completed their registration yet)
For users with expired links:
- No special permissions required - you can resend your own invitation
Steps
For Admins/Team Owners to Resend an Invitation:
- From the sidebar, navigate to either My Teams (for team members) or the Organisation Users tab (for organization-wide access)
- Locate the unverified user in the member table - they'll be marked with a visual indicator showing "**unverified" next to their team role
- Click the action menu (three dots ⋮) on the right side of the user's row
- Select Resend invitation from the dropdown menu
- The invitation is sent immediately - no confirmation dialog appears
- The user receives a new invitation link via their registered email or mobile number
- The member list automatically refreshes to reflect the updated status
For Users with Expired Invitation Links:
- Click on your original invitation link from the email or SMS you received
- If the link has expired, you'll see a page with the heading "Expired link" and the message "Your invitation link has expired or has been already used"
- Click the button labeled "Click here to resend a new link."
- Wait a moment while the system validates your request with reCAPTCHA (this happens automatically in the background)
- Once processed, you'll be redirected to the login page
- Check your email or mobile for the new invitation link
- Click the new link to access the registration page where you can create your password and complete your account setup
Tips
- Invitation links expire within 15 minutes for security purposes, so advise users to complete registration promptly
- If you need to cancel an invitation instead of resending it, select Cancel invitation from the same action menu
- Unverified users are easy to spot in the member table - they appear with a different visual style and show "**unverified" in their team role
- Only Organization Admins, Team Owners, and System Users can resend invitations on behalf of others
- The resend action happens immediately without a confirmation prompt, so make sure you're selecting the correct user
- Users can resend their own expired invitation links without needing to contact an administrator
