Adding Members to your Team
If you're a team owner, you can add someone to a team. If you're not a team owner, you can submit a request, and the team owner will accept or deny it.
This topic is about adding members who are already a part of your team's organization. If you want to add someone who's not a part of your organization, see Add guests to a team.
