Invite someone to a workspace
Invite an email address into a workspace.
/workspaces/{workspace}/invitationsIt always makes an invite bound to that address and emails it the link, so the answer never says whether the address has a g1t account. Without one, accepting makes the account and joins the workspace in one step, and uses one of the workspace’s granted invites, or else one of yours. With one, it costs nothing, and they join when they accept. To add someone by username at once, use the workspace’s People page. Owners only.
kind is workspace when the address already has a g1t account (charged_to is then none), and account when accepting makes one. Both answers look alike to the caller on purpose: the invite is emailed either way.
