# Manage Members
### **Adding a Member:**
1. Click on the "Add member" button.
2. Insert the public key of the member.
3. Specify permissions for the member if you have a [**Squads Business** plan](/main/getting-started/pricing.md) (More about "Permissions" [here](broken://pages/xf50DWqN9Ge4aPZmi9HZ)).
4. You can optionally change the Squad threshold in the same transaction. If not, the threshold will remain the same with a new member added to the Squad.
5. Click the "Initiate transaction" button.

Reminder: Adding members or changing the confirmation threshold will cancel all "Active" and "Ready" transactions in a Squad. Complete these transactions before making changes to your Squad threshold to avoid issues.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.squads.so/main/navigating-your-squad/members/manage-members.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
