Manage room members

Introduction

New room members are created by the Room Administrator. When creating new room members, the Room Administrator can either choose from the list of workspace members, or add new members by entering the user's email address.

If a community member with the given email address already exists, the community member will be added to the room. Otherwise, a brand new user is added as a member of the room.

All room members will automatically become members of the parent workspace and the community in question.
