Describe the problem
When I try to invite another user on the admin panel, I get an error message "Failed to update user". I have of course entered real data.

Can it be that it is because the user has already registered with this email? In the docs it says that you can only invite unregistered users. If this is the case, is there a way to invite this user anyway?

Hey @0PandaDEV.
That's not possible because if a user exists, this means that they have an account, and NetBird only supports one account/network per user.

However, we could modify it manually for your case. Please ping us via Slack.

I run into the same issue. I can't add a new user and receive the same message that it failed to update user, although there is no user with such email and name in my system..

When I invite a user, it brings them to a sign up page. And when I make an account for the user and try to invite a user, it errors out. Makes no sense

It says:

The invited users will receive an email invitation that they have to confirm. After logging in to the system, they will join your network automatically.

And when I try to "log in" as that user it throws an error...

@dillfrescott could you share the error?
