Where do I see all incoming invitations (collaborator)? #22529
-
When people invite me to collaborate on a project where can I see the invitation? I see the invitation in an email, but is that the only place? I wish there were a page on Github which lists all pending invitations. |

Hey that’s a good question.
You can also see the invite if you know which repo you were invited to: https://github.com/username/reponame/invitations > I wish there were a page on Github which lists all pending invitations. Yeah I don’t think there is a place to see all the pending invitations. Looks like this data is not user facing yet 😦 |

Hi @adymoussa, At this time, the only place to view invitations is in the email/web notification or on the repository or organization that invited you. However, I can understand how having a central location to view these invitations could be very helpful. We’re always working to improve GitHub and the GitHub Community Forum, and we consider every suggestion we receive. I’ve logged your feature request in our internal feature request list. Though I can’t guarantee anything or share a timeline for this, I can tell you that it’s been shared with the appropriate teams for consideration. Thanks! |

Thank you @cici-chen and @that-pat for your replies. Hopefully, we’ll have such a page someday :slight_smile: Should I accept your answer as a solution? Or would that confuse people? |

I think accepting it as a solution makes sense since it is to say “this feature doesn’t exist yet, but might in the future.” We are working on a way to make the process of feature requests and feedback less cumbersome eventually. |

For now improving the process for sending, finding and accepting invites (in addition to email / web notifications) would be very good step forward! |

I have numerous pending invitiations but they do not appear in any notification log. I’m very surprised this isn’t a feature. I think the argument for not having it is poor and this is actually a product design failure. Hope to see it corrected in the future! Thank you for github’s current offering to society. |

Please let me know when a central location to see all invitations has been implemented! |

I am hosting a class and asking students to add me as collaborator. It would be great if this feature is implemented so I’ll be able to save a lot of time clicking each individual invitation! |

I finally solved this frustrating problem by using bitbucket. |

I’m assuming this is a technical limitation. As I hope that Github doesnt really expect users to fish through emails to get invites out, especially when a new user is added to 20 repos at the same time. i.e start to work at new company ,etc. |

On what planet does “There is no current solution” work as a “solution”? I am amazed that this is not a feature. I have over 100 students, and while I use Github classroom for many assignments, I do periodically have to give an assignment where they add me as a collaborator. It is ridiculous for me to have to spend the time clicking 100 emails every time I give an assignment. |

Bumping this one up one more time. Seriously guys, this can’t be a tough issue to solve. And if there isn’t a feature to remind people that they have been invited and open invites are just sitting there, it should at least notify a logged in user. What’s the big deal? |

I would really like to see this feature! Just a list of incoming collaborator requests where you can accept/not accept. |

Surely it doesn't take a fifth year to elapse before this is ever implemented? 😠💢 |

I have found an existing fix for this. If you go to "Organizations" you should see all pending invitations. |

Can this issue please be given priority? Seems quite unreasonable that such a basic feature is missing in 2023. |

I am teaching a class starting in a week where I will be invited to collaborate on approximately 40 repositories per week, each repository under the student's personal github account. While I could require them to create repos under a centralized "class" organization, I would prefer for them to use their own accounts so that they have complete control over the repo and can build their own centralized library of code. It seems to me that a minimally impactful solution is to enhance the "Notifications" page to also display current invitations. |

Seems odd this is still unanswered. I don't know how recently it was implemented, but the Notifications search does support a query for this: https://github.com/notifications?query=is%3Arepository-invitation++ (It seems they disappear once they've been read, so maybe still some improvement to be made.) |
