Onboard provider users

To ensure the secure administration of your client organizations, Bitwarden applies a three-step process for onboarding a new Provider member, InviteAcceptConfirm.

Invite

To invite users to your Provider:

  1. Log in to Bitwarden and and open the Provider Portal using the product switcher:

    Product switcher - Provider Portal
    Product switcher - Provider Portal
  2. Open the ManagePeople view and select the Invite User button:

    Add a provider user
    Add a provider user
  3. On the Invite user panel:

    1. Enter the Email address where new users should receive their invites. You can add up to 20 users at a time by comma-separating email addresses.

    2. Select the User type to be applied to this batch of users. User type will determine what access these users will have to the provider. Both user types will be able to fully administer any client organization.

  4. Click Save to invite the designated users to join the Provider.

note

Invitations expire after five days, at which point the user will need to be re-invited. Re-invite users in bulk by selecting each user and using the gear dropdown to Resend invitations:

Resend provider invitation
Resend provider invitation

Accept

Invited users will receive an email from Bitwarden inviting them to join the Provider. Clicking the link in the email will open a Bitwarden invitations window. Log In with an existing Bitwarden account or Create Account to accept the invitation:

  1. In the Provider Portal, navigate to the Manage People view.

  2. Select any Accepted users and use the gear dropdown to Confirm selected:

    Confirm provider users

  3. On the panel that appears, verify that the fingerprint phrases for new users match those they can find in their SettingsMy account screen. Each fingerprint phrase is unique to its account, and ensures a final layer of oversight in securely adding users. If they match, select Confirm.

Deprovision users

To remove users from your Provider:

  1. In the Provider Portal, navigate to the Manage People view.

  2. Select the users you want to remove from the provider and use the gear dropdown to Remove:

Provider user types

tip

Managing a client organization's users? Organizations have a set of member roles and access controls that are distinct from Provider user types.

Bitwarden Provider users can be granted one of two user types to manage their access to the Provider. Both user types will be able to fully administer any client organization. Bitwarden strongly recommends that you provision a second user with a Provider admin role for failover purposes.

You can set user types when you invite provider users, or at any time from the ManagePeople screen in your Provider Portal. User types include:

Role

Description

Service user

Service users can access and manage all client organizations, including:

- Access shared items stored in the organization vault
- Add, edit, or remove items from all collections
- Create or delete collections
- Assign users and user groups to collections
- Assign users to user groups
- Create or delete user groups
- Invite and confirm new users
