# Inviting guests

As an app administrator either at both the **app store** and **application** level, learn how to add and modify guest.

### Overview

You can create guests who will receive a scheduled PDF report. At present, this is the only privilege that guests have.

To create guest, you have to be an **admin** and do it from the **user interface**.

On this page, you have the guests in rows and the apps of your instance as columns.

At the intersection, a pictogram indicates the guest access has been granted.

More than giving you an overview of your guests’ access, from this interface you can also:

* Search the guests: just start typing the guest’s email
* See the number of guests
* Sort your guests
* Hover on the guest name to get its creation date

**Hint**

This is what we call bulk creation 👥

**Bulk creation/edition template**

To create multiple guests, you need to drop a csv file that contains specific information.

A template file is available for download. This file contains all the required columns you need to fill:

* **username** : the username must be an email address
* **user-group** : *(Optional)* type in the name of the group, leave it empty if you don’t want to assign any group to your guest(s). There are by default 3 user-group column, but you can add more just make sure to update the number after `user-group`
* All existing app on your store will have a dedicated column (`small-app lovely-name`), you just need to fill the `guest` privilege for each app.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Hint**

If you want to delete some guests with a bulk upload, then add a `delete` columns and fill it with `true` or `false`
{% endhint %}

Once you’re done filling-up the template, you just have to drop it in the tile 🎉.

### Request Access

A guest can request an access to Toucan Toco from the login screen.

All platform admins will receive an email requesting access.

If a guest is converted to a user, they will be automatically transformed as real user.

Request access emails can only be sent once a day to the same admin for the same user. Admins can unsubscribe from these notifications.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs-v3.toucantoco.com/administration/managing-users/inviting-guests.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
