> **Before you can invite guests that have their own email address to access your SharePoint you need to [have your Microsoft 365 admin go over this sequence](https://community.origamiconnect.com/t/admin-setup-give-external-guest-users-access-to-your-sharepoint-site/50)**

Once completed, to add new guests to your site, follow these steps:  
NOTE: You have to have admin right to do this.

1. Open your Microsoft 365 admin center: [https://admin.microsoft.com/?source=applauncher#/GuestUsers](https://admin.microsoft.com/?source=applauncher#/GuestUsers)

2.1 **If you have lots of users** , you can bulk invite them [by following these steps](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/external-id/tutorial-bulk-invite). The come back here to complete step 5.

2.2 **If you only have a handful of users** , then invite them one-by-one by clicking **Add a guest user**

1. Next, select **Invite User** , and enter their personal email and optionally a name as shown below  

2. Click **Invite**

3. Finally, navigate to the site which you’d like to share with the user (Ex. Your intranet page), click **[Gear]** → **Site permissions** → and give **Everyone** group read access (this includes the guests):  

Here is what happens next:

1. The user will receive an invite to their personal email within seconds.
2. They need to click **Accept Invite** and complete their setup.
3. Each time the user logs in, they will log in with a one-time code.
