This setting allows teachers to share an activated Soundtrap group code or link with their students. If this setting is enabled for the EDU account, students will be able to join the EDU account and their teacher's Soundtrap group via the invite code or link.
IMPORTANT NOTE: We recommend exercising caution when using this feature. Only share an activated group code or link with users who should be in the EDU. Do not share the code or link publicly. If the invite code is shared publicly, it can jeopardize students’ safety if strangers receive access to your school’s Soundtrap account.

Join by invite code
- Go to soundtrap.com/edu and paste the Invite Code into this field:
- You will see two options available.
Click No, I am new here if you have never had a Soundtrap account before.
Click Yes, I have an account if you already have an existing Soundtrap account. - Select which sign-up/log in method you wish to use.
- Congratulations! You have now successfully joined your school's EDU account.
NOTE: Using this method will create student accounts only. If you share an invite code/link with a teacher or other colleagues to join the EDU account, the user will appear with a "student" role in the EDU account.
