# Add collaborators to an app

# Add collaborators to an app in ServiceNow Studio {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated May 7, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Add collaborators to an app in ServiceNow Studio so other developers can co-develop the app with you.

## Before you begin

Customers that don't have Collaboration installed will not be able to manage delegated development permissions in ServiceNow Studio. Existing delegated development permissions will still be respected within ServiceNow Studio.

Role required: admin or delegated_developer

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllApp EngineServiceNow Studio.
2. Select the app you want to add collaborators to, then select App details.
3. Access collaboration settings by selecting the more options icon ![]() and selecting Invite.  
4. In the Invite people by name or group field, enter the name of the user or group you want to invite.  
   A list of matching users and groups appears. If a user or group appears in the list but is not selectable, they have already been added as a collaborator.
5. In the Select descriptor field, select the collaboration role for the user or group.  
   If you are an editor for the app, you can select only the editor descriptor.
   * For more information about collaboration descriptors, see [Collaborating on apps using ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/TOhT7VbesSpice~saoxaVQ "Collaborate with other developers on app development in ServiceNow Studio by inviting them to co-create and develop apps with you.").
   * For a list of all collaboration permissions, see [Collaboration permissions for ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/CM7auEBQpC2gIQCy7RIeMw "Collaboration permissions determine what delegated developers can do when working on an app in ServiceNow Studio. Admins or app owners set these permissions.").

6. Select Send to invite the collaborator.  
   * If the user is new to the ServiceNow AI Platform, an admin must approve the request. After approval, both the requester and the user receive an email confirming that the user has been added to the application.
   * If the user is not new to the ServiceNow AI Platform, the collaboration request is auto-approved. Both the requester and the user receive an email confirming that the user has been added to the application.
