Setting permissions for adding outside collaborators

Organization owners, and members with admin privileges for a repository, can invite outside collaborators to work on the repository. You can also restrict outside collaborator invite permissions to only organization owners.

Adding an outside collaborator to a private repository will use one of your organization's paid licenses. For more information, see "About per-user pricing."

2. Next to the organization, click Settings.
3. In the left sidebar, click Member privileges.
4. Under "Repository invitations", select Allow members to invite outside collaborators to repositories for this organization.
5. Click Save.
