Managing users - How to only allow certain emails to sign-up

Hi everyone,

I’m working with an institution and would like to manage user access to our Pickaxe in a more controlled way. The solution doesn’t have to be exactly this, but in my dream ideal world I’d:

  • I want only users with our institutional email domain to be able to sign up/have a special tier or,
  • Upgrade a list of specific predefined users to a specific tier for free once they have signed up.

Right now, I’m struggling with how to manage this. I have a spreadsheet with all the emails I want to authorize, so here’s what I thought:

  • I might be able to invite users by their emails - but i’d have to do that one by one.
  • I considered creating my desired tier as a “free tier” and sharing a signup link, but manually removing signups who don’t belong to the institution - but that could become unmanageable as more people join.
  • Maybe writing a python script/auto clicker to bulk invite user emails?

Does anyone know a good workaround or best practice for handling this kind of user management ?

Thanks in advance!

Currently, we don’t support auto-approving emails at a certain domain. You’ll have to just get a list of the all users and invite them via the invite system.
