Invite project members

Add editors by email, Members panel, and how sharing differs from a public read-only link.

Share a private project with other Kanban AI users—not the same as making a board public.

Members vs public link

Members — Public link

Who — Signed-in users you invite by email — Anyone with the URL

Access — Edit tasks, post comments — Read-only view

Where — Members button on the board header — Privacy toggle → copy link

Invite someone (project owner)

1. Open your project board.
2. Click Members in the header (beside the privacy control).
3. Enter their Kanban AI account email and invite.
4. They must already have an account—v1 does not email a signup link.
5. The project appears in their sidebar after invite.

Editors can change tasks and comment. Only the owner can invite or remove members.

Local development

With npm run dev:local, invite collaborator@dev.invalid (seeded in the local schema) from the Members panel.

Hosted setup

Apply the project_collaborators RLS migration and set SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY on Vercel so /api/invite-collaborator can resolve email → user id.
