# Invite a User to the Account

`POST /accounts/{account}/actions/invite`

Invite the user to the account by adding it to the account teams and/or
creating access policies within the account.

If the user with a specified email does not exist - a new one will be created.
The new user will be in the 'pending' status until the first login to the account.

This is the preferred way to create users.
