Hi,

We are on the Free Hubspot and am trying to set up another user. As far as I can see Ive given them all the permissions ( super admin).

When I try to set up email it says " You dont have permissions to view this thread ".

Any ideas?

Could you specify where exactly you’re configuring this, can you share a screenshot?

Best regards

@hteplowe11 this looks like you’re trying to set up a conversations inbox: [Set up the conversations inbox](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/inbox/set-up-the-conversations-inbox)

As a super admin, you should be able to access this. Can you confirm that you’re definitely a super admin? [Manage user permissions](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/user-management/manage-user-permissions)

Hi @hteplowe11

What do you mean when you say “When I try to set up email” where in the tool are you. Can you share a screenshot, also one of the error message.

Thanks

Frank

@hteplowe11 you’re logged in as a super admin and you’re not able to access the conversations inbox?

How / where exactly are you trying to add another user? What should the user be added to? Please provide a bit more detail, there’s not a lot to go by from your previous answers. The shorter your answers, the lower the likelihood of a quick resolution.

@hteplowe11 in that case, please follow these steps: [Add HubSpot users](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/account-management/add-and-remove-users)

If you’re getting stuck at any point, please specify where exactly.

The screenshot you took is from a conversations inbox – not related to user management or adding users.

@hteplowe11 you were saying you were trying to add a HubSpot user – what does connecting Gmail have to do with that?

Can you please **explain in detail** what exactly you’re trying to do? Where in the HubSpot navigation are you? What is your goal? Which instructions are you following?

Hi Karsten, sorry for the late reply. I wanted to add Gmail so the user can see their email in hubspot as I do now. That should be possible shouldnt it ?
