How-to: Add a User to an Account or an Individual Trip

Assigning the Right User Roles in YouLi

With the right YouLi plan, you can add different Users to help plan your trips. This guide explains how to -- as a Team Owner -- add Team Admins, Team Members, Co-Planners, and Trip Coordinators to either your ACCOUNT or individual TRIPS.

 

🙋 First, Determine the Right Role for the Person to be Added

Before adding a user, ask yourself:

Are they a part of your team/company?

• If yes, then they're an internal user, and should have access to all trips owned by the Team Owner.

• Add them as a Team Member or Team Admin.

Or, are they helping with just one Trip?

• If yes, then they're likely an external user, and should only have access to specific trips.

• Add them as a Co-Planner or Trip Coordinator.

📥 Adding a Team Member/Admin (Internal User) to an Account

1. Go to ACCOUNT > TEAM MEMBERS

2. Click on '+ ADD USER' or ADD TEAM MEMBER (they both open the same popup window)

3. Fill out the ADD USER popup window
   

• • User Role: read this article to see the difference between Team Admin or Team Member.

    WARNING: Once a role is assigned, it cannot be changed. Choose wisely!

  • TIP: Team Admins available on PRO and above

  • Trip Tags to restrict the User
  • Main Contact (for the Trip)
  • Listed as Contact on Trip Page
    
    

    CAUTION: Only if "no" has been selected for MAIN CONTACT, you will have the option to decide whether this Team Member will be "Listed as Contact by default on Trip Page by default."

    If you chose "Yes", then your new Team Member will appear like this.

    NOTE: These settings apply to all trips created within the team's account. You can always change this once a trip has been created, so this feature is just to ensure that if a particular Team Member is always a contact on trips, then you don't have to manually add them to trips each time.

What does this look like for the invited Team Member/Admin?

1. The new Team Member/Admin will be:
   1. Notified via email that they have been added
   2. Instructed to reset their password to log in
2. Once logged in, the new Team Member/Admin will see all TRIPS owned by the Team Owner and be automatically added to all future TRIPS created by any internal user shown under ACCOUNT > TEAM MEMBERS

🔧 Troubleshooting

Removing a User from a Trip or Account

• Click the trashcan icon next to their name
• This will not delete their YouLi account, they'll still be able to log in, but won't have access to the TRIPS they were previously on when you had them as a Co-Planner or Team Member

Editing User Details

• Click the pencil icon next to their name to edit their information

Resending Invitations 

• Click the paper airline icon next to their name 
• This can be done if they haven't accepted the invitation, or they need to reset their YouLi account password
