* Select **Add existing members** to add existing members of your Group to the Organization. Select the users when prompted and click **Invite members.**
* For Free plan users only:\
  Select **Invite by link** to send a link; click **Copy link** and send the link yourself. Note that an invite link expires after 48 hours.

{% hint style="warning" %}
For Enterprise plan customers who create custom roles, Snyk prevents users from assigning roles to other users who have more privileges. If you try to update a role, invite a new user, or add an existing user with a role that has more privileges than you have, you will see the error **Cannot assign higher privilege role**.
{% endhint %}

2. Click **Delete member from** \[**your Organization’s name]** when prompted.
