New Scouts and parents join your troop using your troop's Access Code. There are two ways to share it.

Option 1 — Email it to many people at once

Use this when you have a list of new families to onboard.

  1. Tap Account Settings (top right of the app).
  2. Tap Organization.
  3. Tap Troop Information.
  4. Under your troop's Access Code, tap Send code to members.
  5. On the Send Access Code page, tick the unclaimed members you want to invite (the list shows everyone with an email but no Campfire account yet) and/or paste up to 100 additional email addresses.
  6. Optionally add a Personal Note that goes into every invitation.
  7. Tap Send Invitations. Each recipient receives an email with the access code and a link to sign up.

Option 2 — Share the access code directly

Use this for in-person sign-ups, sharing in a flyer, or word-of-mouth.

  1. Tap Account SettingsOrganizationTroop Information.
  2. Copy your Access Code from the field at the top.
  3. Share it however you like. New families enter the code on the Campfire sign-up page to join your troop.

Watch for duplicates

If a family already had a Campfire account from a different troop and you imported them via Scoutbook, you may end up with duplicates — see Merge duplicate members to clean those up.
