# Add or remove users from a stream
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
By default, anyone (other than guests) subscribed to a stream can add
 | 
						|
users to that stream. Additionally, anyone (other than guests) can add
 | 
						|
users to a public stream, whether or not they are subscribed to the
 | 
						|
stream. Anyone can always [unsubscribe themselves from a stream](/help/unsubscribe-from-a-stream).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Organization administrators can also unsubscribe *other* users from any stream,
 | 
						|
including streams the admin is not subscribed to. They can also configure which
 | 
						|
[roles](/help/roles-and-permissions) have access to [add other users to a
 | 
						|
stream][add-users] or [remove other users from a stream][remove-users].
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[add-users]: /help/configure-who-can-invite-to-streams#configure-who-can-add-users
 | 
						|
[remove-users]: /help/configure-who-can-invite-to-streams#configure-who-can-remove-users
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Add users to a stream
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{start_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{relative|stream|all}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Select a stream.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{!select-stream-view-subscribers.md!}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Under **Add subscribers**, enter a name or email address. The typeahead
 | 
						|
   will only include users who aren't already subscribed to the stream.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Click **Add**.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
!!! tip ""
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      To add users in bulk, you can copy members from an
 | 
						|
      existing stream or [user group](/help/user-groups).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{!automated-dm-stream-subscription.md!}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Mentioning a user in the compose box (alternate method)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When you [mention a user](/help/mention-a-user-or-group) while composing
 | 
						|
a message, an alert banner appears above the compose box if they are not
 | 
						|
subscribed to the stream.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Click the **Subscribe them** button on the banner to add the user to the
 | 
						|
stream. You will not see the button if you don't have permission to
 | 
						|
subscribe the user.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
!!! tip ""
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
      You do not have to send the message you are composing for
 | 
						|
      the user to be subscribed this way.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Remove users from a stream
 | 
						|

						|
{start_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{relative|stream|all}
 | 
						|
 |

						|

						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### From a user's profile (alternate method)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This method is useful if you need to remove one user from multiple streams.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{start_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{!right-sidebar-view-profile.md!}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Select the **Streams** tab.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Under **Subscribed streams**, find the stream you would like
 | 
						|
   to remove the user from.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Click the **Unsubscribe** button in that row.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
