Renaming or deleting a flow

To manage a particular flow, select it from the left hand menu, and then click on the "options" link at the top right hand corner.

This will bring up the options pane for the flow. If this is a flow that you created, you will have the option to edit the flow name, change your notification options, or delete the flow entirely.

If you did not create the flow, and no longer wish to participate, you can leave the flow by clicking "leave this flow" link at the top of the options pane.

Inviting people to a flow

To invite people to a flow, you must have created that flow.

Select the flow from the left hand menu, and then click on the "invite" link in the top right hand corner:

This will bring up the members pane for that flow. Click on the "add members…" link.

Enter the email address(es) of anyone you want to invite in the text box that appears.

If you don't see the "invite" link but rather a "members" link, you're not the flow's owner. You'll need to ask the owner to invite others. To find the owner, click the "members" link to open the "members of this flow" panel. The flow's owner will be listed at the top of the list. You can email the owner by clicking on their name and selecting "send email" from the menu.

Click on the member you wish to remove, and select "remove (member) from this flow" from the menu.

If you invited the member but they never accepted your invitation, they will appear at the bottom of the list with an "…" icon next to their email address. Click on the email address and select "revoke invitation".
