As an admin, you can add people to opportunities across the platform - not only ones you lead. This article explains how, and how it differs from adding people as a participant or lead.
How to add users as an admin
Go to the Admin Panel, Opportunities listing page and open the relevant opportunity.
Move to the Participants tab and click Add participants.
To add an existing member, select them from the list. To add someone who isn't a member yet, click + Add new member, then enter their name, surname and email, and select a member type from the dropdown.
Confirm to add them.
📝 Note: People you add this way are placed straight into the Accepted section - they don't need to apply or be approved.
How this differs from adding as a participant or lead
The key difference is reach and permission: an admin can add people to any opportunity on the platform, whereas an opportunity lead or participant can only add others to opportunities they're directly involved in. The experience for the person being added is the same - they're linked to the opportunity and their involvement is tracked.
