What am I missing here, I can’t seem to get the send invitation workflow to function. It’s in my “Personnel” table which is where my user list is pulled from. When I try to select the email the invitation could be sent to it’s not available and it doesn’t work if I just use the Id. What should I be doing to get this to work?

Hey @onlymatt - would you be able to share the workflow with us?

The “user” should be the Noloco user, not an email address.

Does that help?

I’m sure you’ve seen the guide, but for anyone else, here’s the guide on sending an invitation email workflow action:
