Adding Users & Managing Permissions

Adding Users

Create users through User Management. A valid and unique email address is required for each user. Providing one First Name and one Last Name is recommended to ensure compatibility with our import tools.

Users must agree to BulkSource’s Terms and Conditions (https://app.bulksource.com/terms-of-use) and Privacy Policy (https://app.bulksource.com/privacy-policy) in order to access the platform.

Managing Permissions

Permissions can only be managed after users have been created. 

You can initially create users using a placeholder email address by leveraging email plus addressing. For example, you can use your own email and add a “+” so BulkSource recognizes it as a unique address. This is an effective way to set up permissions as users must be created before you can setup permissions.

How it works:
Email providers such as Gmail treat anything after a “+” (for example, [e-mail]) as the same inbox as [e-mail], while still recognizing it as a distinct email address.

How to use it:
When creating the user, enter an email in the format [e-mail]. You’ll receive the emails in your primary inbox.

Optional filtering:
You can create email filters (for example, in Gmail) to automatically label or organize messages sent to these “+” addresses, helping keep your inbox organized.

When you’re ready to invite the user, you can update the email address to their correct email and send the invitation link.
