[Accounts & Users](https://help.designhuddle.com/accounts-users?hsLang=en) # How to Add and Manage Users #### **This article will cover:** ●    How to Add Users ●    User Management #### **How to Add Users** Users can be created manually within Design Huddle and must be associated with an Account. Each Account can include either a single user or multiple users. Users within the same Account can share Projects with one another. While Brands and Assets can be shared across multiple Accounts, placing users under the same Account is only necessary when they need to collaborate on Projects and use the same Brand Assets. To add a new User, follow these steps: 1. Navigate to the **Admin** tab 2. Navigate to **Account** **Users** subtab 3. Click **Add New User** button 4. Add the User's **Name** 5. Add the User's **Email** 6. Add the **Status** 7. Add the **Role** 8. Check the box to send the Welcome Email 9. Click **Save** *Note: Roles can be custom-built, please reach out to [support@designhuddle.com](mailto:support@designhuddle.com) if you would like to create separate roles for users with unique permissions (such as approval status or the ability to update a Brand). You can also optionally add a User ID if you are keeping Design Huddle in synch with a separate database.*  #### **User Management** Once a User has been added, you can hover over their line item in the Account Users grid and you will see a couple of options pop up on the right side of the page. 1. If the User has never logged in and needs to receive their login email, you will see an option to **Send Welcome Email**. 2. Use the **trash** icon to delete the user from the system (Best practice is to change out the email if you are to delete. If you attempt to re-add the user with the same email later this will fail. Please contact [support@designhuddle.com](mailto:support@designhuddle.com) if this occurs). 3. Use the **Mark as Tes**t option to mark a user as test to avoid being billed (this should ONLY be used for test Users 4. You will have the option to **log in virtually** as the user. You can do this to see what projects the user is working on. 5. Users can also be exported from the Account Users subtab to a CSV. This will allow for easy access and reporting on your users for all Admins in the system. #### **MCP Support** Authorized administrators can create, inspect, update, or archive users through the Design Huddle MCP. The assistant can resolve the destination Account and role, preview the user’s effective access, and optionally send the welcome email when explicitly requested. **Sample prompt:** “Create Jordan Lee as an Editor in the Acme Account and send the welcome email after I approve the user details.” - [Brands & User Groups](https://help.designhuddle.com/brands-user-groups?hsLang=en) - [Projects & Templates](https://help.designhuddle.com/projects-templates?hsLang=en) - [Accounts & Users](https://help.designhuddle.com/accounts-users?hsLang=en) - [Template Locking](https://help.designhuddle.com/template-locking?hsLang=en) - [Admin](https://help.designhuddle.com/admin?hsLang=en) - [Editor](https://help.designhuddle.com/editor?hsLang=en) - [User Portal](https://help.designhuddle.com/user-portal?hsLang=en) - [MCP Server](https://help.designhuddle.com/mcp-server?hsLang=en) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.designhuddle.com/hs-fs/hubfs/fbIcon.png?width=24&height=24&name=fbIcon.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.designhuddle.com) Design Huddle Knowledge Base Copyright © 2026, Design Huddle
