# How to Assign Self-Registered Users to a Team

# How to Assign Self-Registered Users to a Team

* Things to keep in mind
* FAQs
* Who can do this

## Overview
When people sign up through your registration page, they need to land in a Team. Self-Registration gives you two ways to handle this: put everyone into a single Team you choose, or offer a shortlist of Teams and let each person pick the one that fits them. You set this once, and it applies to everyone who registers.

The **Team assignment** option lives in the registration page configuration, alongside the role and the details you collect.

## Assign everyone to one team
Use this when every new sign-up should go into the same Team — for example a general "New starters" Team you triage later.
1. Go to **Settings → Security**.
2. In the **Self-Registration** section, click **Configure page**.
3. Under **Team assignment**, choose **Assign everyone to one team**.
4. Use the **Select team** dropdown to pick the Team.
5. Click **Save**.

Everyone who registers is added to that one Team automatically — they aren't asked to choose.

## Let people choose a team
Use this when it makes sense for people to self-select, such as choosing their department or location.
1. Go to **Settings → Security**.
2. In the **Self-Registration** section, click **Configure page**.
3. Under **Team assignment**, choose **Let people choose a team**.
4. In **Teams people can choose from**, use **Add a team…** to build the shortlist of Teams a registrant may pick from.
5. Click **Save**.

On the public registration page, each person then picks their Team from the shortlist you set. Only the Teams you add here are offered — nothing else on your platform is exposed.

> **Note:** A registrant can only be placed in a Team from your shortlist. If someone submits a Team that isn't on the list, the sign-up is rejected.

## Things to keep in mind
* You must have at least one valid Team configured before you can turn Self-Registration on. In single-Team mode that's the selected Team; in choice mode it's at least one Team in the shortlist.
* If a Team you selected is later deleted, it shows a **(deleted)** badge in the configuration so you can spot it. Pick a replacement Team before relying on the page again.
* Changing the Team assignment only affects people who sign up afterwards. It doesn't move anyone who has already registered.
* Team assignment works the same whether sign-ups are approved automatically or reviewed first.

## FAQs
**Can I offer more than one team for people to choose from?**
Yes. Choose **Let people choose a team** and add as many Teams as you like to the **Teams people can choose from** shortlist. The registrant picks one when they sign up.

**What happens if the team I picked gets deleted?**
The deleted Team is flagged with a **(deleted)** badge in the configuration. Choose a different Team so new sign-ups have somewhere valid to land.

**Can someone join a team that isn't on my list?**
No. In choice mode people can only pick from the shortlist you set, and any Team submitted outside that list is rejected.

## Who can do this
Only the **Owner** can configure Self-Registration, including team assignment. The Self-Registration settings live under **Settings → Security**, which is restricted to the Owner. **Admins**, **Managers**, **People Managers**, **Content Managers**, **Instructors**, **Employees**, and **Restricted** users cannot access these settings.
