Setting up your profile after an invitation

When an Admin invites you to a Katalyz workspace, they only enter your email address. The first time you log in, a short wizard asks you for the rest — your name, your job title, your booking link — and offers to connect your inbox and CRM. It takes about a minute, and everything can be changed later in Settings.


Before the wizard


You receive an invitation email with a magic link. Click it — no password to create. See Logging in with a magic link if the link has expired.


The wizard, screen by screen


1. Welcome


You're invited to {your company} — "You've been added to the {company} workspace as you@company.com. Let's set up your profile so your buyers know who they're talking to." Click Get started (Takes about a minute.).


2. Tell us about you — Step 1 of 2


"This appears on every dealroom you share." Fill in:


Field

Required

Where buyers see it

First name

Yes

Your contact card, comments, invitations you send

Last name

Yes

Same

Position

No

Under your name on contact cards (e.g. Account Executive)

Phone number

No

Contact card — pick the country code, then type the number

LinkedIn

No

A LinkedIn button on your contact card

Booking link

No

A Book button on your contact card (Cal.com, Calendly, HubSpot Meetings…)


Continue is enabled once first and last name are filled. Back returns to the welcome screen.

3. Connect your tools — Step 2 of 2


"Sync your inbox and CRM so meetings and contacts stay up to date. You can always do this later in settings." Two rows, matching whatever your workspace uses:


  • Google email & calendar (or Microsoft email & calendar) — Track opens, sync meetings and send from your address.
  • HubSpot (or Salesforce) — Keep deals and contacts in sync with your CRM.


Click Connect on a row to authorize it; it turns to Connected. A counter tracks progress — 0 / 2 (Recommended — connecting both keeps your meetings and contacts up to date automatically.), 1 / 2 (a nudge to add the other one), then Inbox and CRM connected — you're fully set up.


The action button adapts: with nothing connected it reads Skip for now; once you've connected at least one tool it becomes Start using {company}.


"Connect your tools" screen with the email row Connected and the CRM row still showing Connect


4. Done


A quick Welcome aboard, {first name} and Katalyz opens on your Home page.


What connecting your tools gives you


  • Email & calendar — your meetings appear on Home and on the Meetings page, the Meeting widget can pull your calendar events into rooms, and invitations you send go out from your own address (see Notification sender email).
  • CRM — rooms link to your deals and contacts, and mapped fields stay in sync (see CRM field mapping).


If you skipped, both connections are available any time from Settings → Account → Profile (Sign in with Google / Microsoft, Sign in with HubSpot / Salesforce). The buttons only appear once an Admin has enabled the integration for the workspace.


The "Get started" checklist


After the wizard, the left sidebar shows a Get started card with a progress ring — N of M done. Click it to expand the list; it groups what's left:


Group

Warnings in the checklist


The same card surfaces things that need attention, above the to-do groups:


Warning

Meaning

Reconnect your email & calendar

Sign in again to keep syncing — the Google/Microsoft authorization expired

Reconnect your CRM

Sign in again to keep deals in sync

CRM sync failed

Last attempt couldn't reach your CRM

Trial ends in 3 days

Add a payment method to continue (Admins)

Seat limit reached

Upgrade to add more teammates (Admins)

Upgrade Salesforce package

Ask your admin to enable custom fields

Stale invites

Some invites are over 7 days old (Admins) — resend them from Settings → Members


Tips


  • Add the booking link. It's the single profile field that most directly turns a room visit into a meeting — buyers get a Book button on your card.
  • Connect your calendar before your first call, so the notetaker (if your workspace uses one) and the Meeting widget have something to work with.
  • Upload a photo from Settings → Profile. Rooms look noticeably more human with faces on the team cards.
