My invitation link doesn't work
You opened an invitation to someone's map and read:
"This invitation is no longer valid": "It may have been used already, be more than 7 days old, or have been cut short when copied. Ask whoever sent it for a new one."
Why it happens
An invitation link works once, for 7 days. Whoever opens it first, within those 7 days, joins the map. After that, the link is spent. It also stops working if part of it got lost when it was copied, or if the maps it opened are no longer there.
What to do
- Ask the person who invited you for a new link. They make it from the Share menu of their map, with Invite someone.
- Or ask them to invite you by your GitHub username: then nothing expires, the map is waiting for you when you sign in with that GitHub account.
- Click Go to my dashboard to go back to your own projects.
Good to know
- People you're invited as see the whole map and can't change anything.
- You sign in with your GitHub account: there's no separate password.
