I haven't received the invitation email for my Panther account
Issue
When adding a new user to your Panther Console, the user never receives the invitation email.
Resolution
To troubleshoot this issue:
- Check your spam folder. The email is sent from no-reply@verificationemail.com.
- If the email you are adding already exists in Panther, try creating the user with an email username suffix: user+suffix@example.com
If the invitation email does not appear in your spam folder, and you are on a legacy Self-Hosted or CPaaS account deployment, verify the following:
-
Has the deployment finished successfully? The CloudFormation stack(s) should be
CREATE_COMPLETE
. -
From the CloudFormation web console, double-check the
FirstUserEmail
parameter in your stack to verify whether you mistyped the email address.
-
Check the Panther CloudWatch dashboards for any errors and/or
search the
/aws/lambda/panther-cfn-custom-resources
for error messages to help identify the root cause of the issue.
Cause
This most often occurs if the email goes to your spam folder.
