# Invite Visitors (Email vs Public Links)

> Compare private invites vs public access links and learn when and how to use each to control who can enter your Data Room.

## How to bulk invite visitors

Invite visitors (or investors) by pasting their emails separated by commas within our guided invite flow. The invite flow includes:

* Customized messaging
* Pre-selection of what Data Room(s) you’re inviting the members into
* Customized access or permission groups

Head to the **Access** tab, then scroll down to the *Members* section. Here you can privately invite members into your Data Room.
