How to Add Members to a Communications or Teams SharePoint Site

If you are a manager of a SharePoint site, you can add members and grant them permissions like ability to view only or ability to modify files & folders.

NOTE:

• These instructions are only applicable to Teams sites and Communication sites. For Document Centers (or document repositories), please follow this article.
• You will need to be a site owner of the SharePoint site in order to add members
• These instructions are only for adding members that are in the Wiley X domain. External users cannot be added by default

To add members, follow these steps:

1. Log into the site you want to add members to
2. On the top right, click on the cog wheel (Settings) and click on Site permissions
   
3. Depending on the site, you will see either of the following sites:
   1. (Teams Site) Click on Invite people > Add members to group
      
      Then click Add members
      
      
   2. (Communication Site) Click on Share site
      
      
      
4. Enter in the name or email address of the member you want to add. Once you start typing the name you should see the member listed below, click on their name/email to complete it. You can add multiple members at once.
