A household is the group of people who share a homelab. You are its owner. Two kinds of people can belong to it, and they differ in what they get.

​
Two kinds of members

A homelab member does not need a kombify account and does not use up a place for kombify members. You add one on the homelab itself. See stackkit user, which prints a one-time link for the person to set up their passkey.
Setting up a homelab sign-in for a kombify member from the dashboard is in preview.

​
What you need first

  • A kombify account. See Create an account.
  • The e-mail address of the person you invite. They sign in with an account that uses that address.

​
Invite a kombify member

1

Open Household

Open Household in the left rail of the dashboard. If you have none yet, give your household a name and choose Create household.
2

Send the invitation

Choose Invite, enter the e-mail address and choose what the person may use. You can change this later. Choose Send invitation.
3

Share the link

kombify shows an invitation link and a Copy link button. The link works once, belongs to that e-mail address and expires after 14 days. If the person already has an account, the invitation also reaches their Feed.
4

The person accepts

The person opens the link, signs in with the invited account and chooses Join household. Messages and shares from your household then appear in their Feed.
Open invitations are listed under Open invitations. Choose the withdraw button to cancel one. A link for another e-mail address, or one that was used, withdrawn or has expired, is refused with a message that says which. When your homelab already knows the new member, the confirmation page offers Set up homelab sign-in. This is a one-time activation link for the sign-in on the homelab. It is valid until the time shown on the page. A member can also start it later from their own entry in Household.

​
Remove a member

Open the person in Household and choose Remove, then confirm. They lose access to everything you share in the household. A member can leave by choosing Leave household. The owner cannot leave.

​
If something goes wrong

  • If the invitation says the e-mail address does not match, sign in with the address the invitation was sent to.
  • If an invitation is refused because of a limit, check how many invitations are still open and withdraw the ones you no longer need. How many kombify members you can have depends on your plan; see Plans and billing.
  • For anything else, write to info@kombify.io.
