| ## About repository invitations | |
| You can view and manage invitations to collaborate on a repository. The invited users (or external services on behalf of invited users) can choose to accept or decline the invitations. | |
| To add a user as a collaborator, use the Collaborators endpoints instead. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/rest/collaborators/collaborators#add-a-repository-collaborator). | |
| Note that the `repo:invite` [OAuth scope](/apps/oauth-apps/building-oauth-apps/scopes-for-oauth-apps) grants targeted | |
| access to invitations **without** also granting access to repository code, while the | |
| `repo` scope grants permission to code as well as invitations. | |
