User Access Manager
Packages: Basic | Standard | Premium
Use the User Access Manager app to automatically invite members of your org to ChartHop as part of the onboarding process and ensure ex-employees no longer have access.
You must have already set up your Org Chart in ChartHop in order to use the User Access Manager. Even though employees display in your Org Chart, they must be granted access to ChartHop in order to use it.
After you create your Org Chart, you can invite employees to have access to ChartHop.
When installed, this app automatically sends email invites to all current people in your organization who have a work email set up in ChartHop. After which, you can configure the app to run daily to invite any new hires. This automates the process of giving new users access to ChartHop.
- When there's a new hire, the app sends them an invite to ChartHop on their first day.
- When there's a departure, the app removes the user's access on their last day.
By default, everyone in your org with a work email is invited. If you only want some members of your org meeting certain criteria to get automatic invites, you can set a filter accordingly.
Sample filter | Who it includes: |
employment:full | All full-time employees |
is:manager | All employees who have direct reports |
under:manager name | All employees who report to the manager name you use, including those who report to managers who under the manager you name. |
For more information about creating filters, see ChartHop’s Carrot documentation for a list of fields you can use and how to write filters. Learn more.
You can’t invite users that aren’t in your organization (not included in your Org Chart) with the User Access Manager app. You’ll need to invite these types of users from the Users page. You should also use the Users page to edit any user’s role. Learn more.
You can only use the app to give users an employee or guest role in ChartHop. If you need to grant a user more advanced permissions, you need use the Users page to update their permissions.
Before configuring settings for the User Access Manager app, you should install it and clear all settings. Clearing all settings before you begin prevents invitations from being sent until you customize the settings you need.

You can customize when the User Access app sends out ChartHop invitations. You can have it automatically send invites when a user is added to your organization or you can send invitations on-demand.
As a best practice, ChartHop recommends using the Sync User Access option the first time you are inviting users. Learn more.
Use the User page within ChartHop to invite individual users as well as change their access role.
Regardless of which method you decide to use, you can set up a filter to determine which employees get sent invitations. For example, you may want to allow only full-time employees to access ChartHop.
