I have create the new appVeyor account, set up the name appropriately and have added my personal email address as an administrator on the team page. However, when I log in to appVeyor with my github account (which has the same email address as it's primary address) I do not get any option for which account to sign in as and I cannot see any way to accept the invite. (If i click the link in the invite email, I end up logging in with my github account and in the same position)</p>
<p>Any help on getting this working would be appreciated.</p></div>Richardtag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/460071232018-09-01T17:22:31Z2018-09-01T17:22:31ZUnable to add team member to account<div><p>Higher up on the page of the docs you linked to is the <a href="https://www.appveyor.com/docs/team-setup/#definitions">definitions</a>, which is a worthwhile (and short) read.</p>
<p>\I'm guessing that you added your personal email as a <em>User</em>. This won't work since you already have an account (i.e. you are not a <strong>New User</strong>). Instead, you need to add yourself as <em>Collaborator</em>.</p>
<p>This is admittedly not intuitive as it should be and it is part of the user experience for which we are currently working on improvements.</p></div>Owen McDonnelltag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/460071232018-09-04T21:20:29Z2018-09-04T21:20:30ZUnable to add team member to account<div><p>Thank you, that was indeed the problem. All is working now.</p></div>Richard
