# Add user to organization

`POST /api/{org_id}/users/{email_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.openobserve.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.openobserve.ai/api/{org_id}/users/{email_id}`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/openobserve/apis/openobserve-api-http/docs/api/:org_id/users/:email_id/post.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Adds an existing user account to the organization with the specified role assignment. The user must already exist in the system with valid authentication credentials. This operation grants the user access to organization resources and data according to their assigned role permissions.

## Path parameters

- `org_id` string, required
- `email_id` string, required

## Request body

- object
  - `custom_role` string[], nullable
  - `role` string, required

## Response `200`

Success

- HttpResponse: HTTP response code 200 is success code 400 is error code 404 is not found code 500 is internal server error code 503 is service unavailable code >= 1000 is custom error code message is the message or error message
  - `code` integer, required
  - `error_detail` string, nullable
  - `hint` string, nullable: One-line guidance on how to fix the error (agent self-correction, D4).
  - `id` string, nullable
  - `message` string, required
  - `name` string, nullable
  - `suggestions` string[], nullable: Closest valid alternatives for a mistyped field/function name.
  - `trace_id` string, nullable
  - `warnings` string[], nullable: Problems with a request that succeeded anyway. Distinct from `hint`, which explains a failure: these accompany a 200, and the caller is entitled to have meant it.
