# Bring someone onto the team

Give a person a working identity here — who they are, what they may do, and the team they sit in.

Manage · a play in 2 steps.

## The steps

1. Create their user — binds their sign-in account and sets what they may do. — [createUser](/reference/user/createUser/)
2. Seat them in a team so shared work and team messages reach them. — [updateTeam](/reference/team/updateTeam/)
