You would have to change the code for the invitation webscript/workflow or just write a new webscript and link your invitation button/whatever to it.

You can set site membership in js like this:

var site = siteService.getSite("demosite");
site.setMembership("mcasanket", "SiteCollaborator");‍‍

Just adapt it to your needs.

Thanks Zladuric,

I have tried the code that you gave in last post. But it gives me error related to some transaction. It says it is read only transaction. Just for testing I put the code in tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\webscripts\org\alfresco\repository\site\membership\potentialmembers.get.js. I have put hard coded code like

site.setMembership("mcasanket", "SiteCollaborator");‍

You can set site membership in js like this:
var site = siteService.getSite("demosite");
site.setMembership("mcasanket", "SiteCollaborator");‍‍

Thanking You!

This will always set the same ("mcasanket") user to site, is that what you want?

Or did you alternate it so you take the username from the script arguments?

Thanks Zladuric,

No I set it for just testing. Thanks your post helped me a lot. I have put the line of code in tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\webscripts\org\alfresco\repository\site\invitation\invitation.post.json.js. And it is working fine.
