Invite colleagues
ResearchGATE offers you three different comfortable import assistants. In all three cases, if somebody accepts your invitation, he or she is automatically added as your contact. You can personalize your invitation with a message for your colleagues.
Invite Web contacts
To make the import process of colleagues easy and fast, we offer you the direct connection to your web e-mail address or other social networks (facebook, linkedin, twitter, etc.) account, where you can select contacts you would like to invite to the platform.
Invite colleagues using their e-mail addresses
ResearchGATE has developed a smart import engine that allows users to paste e-mail addresses separated by commas, enters, or other delimiters.
Or use the following workflow: Go to Outlook or other e-mail application and select the contacts you want to import. Copy the entire content into the invite box. You will now see largely unformatted data.
Our engine automatically extracts the e-mail addresses from this data and will offer you these for an invitation.
Invite colleagues from your address book
Import your entire Outlook (or other *.csv file) or your Thunderbird address book into ResearchGATE by using this option.
Track invitations
You can easily track invitations and can resend invitations to single contacts.
