E-mail invitations
To invite a project member with e-mail, please go to 'People' tab and click 'Invite project member' button on the right side. SimpleLocalize will send an e-mail with invitation automatically after you click 'Send invitation' button in the popup. The invitation e-mail will contain an invitation link which will redirect the recipient to the created account page, or the invitation page where he/she can accept the invitation. After that, the invited person can sign in to the account. The project will be available on the project list in dashboard.
Shareable links
Shareable links are an easy way of inviting more people at once to a project without knowing their e-mail address. You can find Shareable links in the 'People' tab. One is for inviting project administrators and the second one is for inviting translators.
A person who would like to use the invitation link must create an account first in SimpleLocalize. Shareable links can be reset if you decide you want to invalidate a current shareable link.
There is also an option to disable shareable links completely or temporarily by clicking the 'Delete links' button. If you decide to enable them again, the system will generate new links.
Project roles
In SimpleLocalize, we distinguish 3 user roles: project owners, project administrators and translators. Each role has its own set of permissions and access levels. Every time you create a project, you are becoming a project owner to which you can invite administrators and translators.
Project owner role
The project owner is the user from which the subscription for the project is inherited. There can be only one project owner per project. Only the project owner can delete a project. The project owner can transfer the project ownership to another user that is already a project administrator and has an active subscription plan.
Administrator role
Every project can have multiple administrators. Administrator rights are equal with project owner role. The only difference between those two roles is that Administrator cannot delete projects.
Translator role
Translator is the role designed to be focused only on works connected with translations. By default, translators have access only to selected project tabs, which is:
- 'Translations' tab
- 'Languages' tab
- 'Data' tab
- 'Activity' tab
Permissions
You can restrict access to certain app areas using a permission system. The permission system allows you to decide which tabs or app areas will be visible for a Translator.
List of available permissions:
- Add new languages – allows to add new languages to the project in 'Languages' tab.
- Modify language details – allows to modify language details in 'Languages' tab.

By default, every translator has access to all project languages. He can view and modify translation for every language. With 'Language access' feature you can restrict an option to viewing only, or hiding some language completely from the UI for certain user with a translator role.
Team administrators
