Hello, I would like to add my collaborator to my appwrite instance but I don't want to configure SMTP just for that, is there a way to manually create a member? I have full control of the instance and the server it's hosted on.

TL;DR
To add a member to your Appwrite instance without enabling SMTP, you can add them to your organization via the organization members section. However, adding a member directly to a project without SMTP is not possible. One workaround is to use the `_APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_IPS` or `_APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_EMAILS` environment variables to allow specific emails or IP addresses to register.

Hi there, thank you for your question. So, if you are talking about Appwrite Cloud, then this feature is not yet available due to closed Beta. However, if we are talking otherwise, then you can add members to your organization (not project) here: https://[your_domain_or_ip]/console/account/organizations From there you click your organization, switch to organization members, and invite from there. Coming back to adding member to a project , unfortunately the only way is SMTP but, a work around could be to allow specific emails or IP addresses to register. You can do it with _APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_IPS or _APP_CONSOLE_WHITELIST_EMAILS. https://appwrite.io/docs/environment-variables.
