bSpace generally relies on people using their CalNet ID and passphrase to log in to the system. In some cases, however, you might want or need someone outside the UC Berkeley community to have access to your site. You can create guest accounts and add new users to your site in a few easy steps.

Add Participants and Assign Roles

1. Click Site Info in the left toolbar.
2. From the Site Info screen click the Add Participants link located in the top toolbar.
3. In the Non-UC Berkeley Participants text box, enter an email address for each people for whom you wish to add to your site.
   

   NOTE: Enter each email address on a separate line.

   

   ALERT: NEVER add Berkeley student, faculty, or staff member to your site using the "Non-UC Berkeley Participants" box.

4. If you want to assign new participants to different roles, choose the "Assign each participant a role individually."
5. Click the Continue button.
6. Choose the role for participants you are adding to your site.
   

   Tip: Assign the guest(s) a role in your site. Educational Technology Services recommends that you choose a read-only role (“Guest” or “Access”) in most cases. For more information see our FAQs about Course Site Roles and Project Site Roles.

7. Click the Continue button.
8. Choose whether you would like to send an email to notify users that they have been added to your site.
9. Click the Continue button.
10. Confirm the list of participants that you have chosen to add to your site and click the Finish button.

Once they have logged into bSpace with this account site participants can add a first and last name (since only their email will show up in the account initially) by going to My Workspace > Account > Modify Details. This is also where they can change their password. You can't do this for them.
