Add Manager

Required scopes: manager (Read and Write).

Adds a manager to your account and grants them access to the listed projects, TMs, glossaries, and style guides. Default TMs and glossaries of the listed projects are granted too. A user added by username, or by an email that belongs to a Crowdin account, becomes active at once and gets a notification. Anyone else gets an invitation email and stays pending until they accept it. If an invitation email went to the address in the last 24 hours, from any account, no new email is sent, but the invitation is saved. An invitation can't be sent again: adding a person who already has your pending invitation returns 409 and sends no email.

Note: Available only if your email is verified. Up to 50 manager emails a day; each manager takes a seat in your plan's managers limit
