Are previously invited Trello users automatically added to a new invite board?

Question

When I add a member to a Trello board, the UI pops up a list of possible choices. This list includes people who have accepted the invite I have previously sent for other Trello boards.

If I choose a user from this list, do they get an invite email or are they just automatically added to the board without waiting for a response from an invite email?

Answer 1

If the user is in the same organization as you and the board is part of that organization, you can automatically add them to the board:

1. Click the Add Members button and they will be listed under the current members section.
2. Click a user and select Add to board.
3. They will get added immediately, without going through the email / accept process.

There's more information about it on our blog: Improving Organizations: Adding Members and Self-Join

If they are not in the same organization, you will have to go through the normal invite process.

Answer 2

They are still sent an invitation email to join your new board, even if you've already asked them to join you on a different board.

Before they can join the new board, they will have to accept the invite. They are not automatically added.
