# Restrict organization sign-up to invited users

> Restrict organization sign-up, allowing users to join only using admin-approved invitations.

<Note>
  This setting controls who can join your organization. It's different from **invite-only access**, which controls who receives Qodo's review feedback on pull requests.
</Note>

<Note>
  This setting is available to organization admins.
</Note>

When **Invite-only access** is enabled, only users who have been invited to the organization can register or sign in. Users who have not been invited are blocked from accessing the organization, and an access request is sent to an organization admin for approval.

## Enable or disable invite-only access

<Steps>
  <Step>
    In the Qodo portal, go to **Account Management**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select **Settings**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Select **Access & permissions**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Enable the **Invite-only access** toggle.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Save**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  This change applies instantly.
