Invite anyone to your tailnet
Blog post from Tailscale
Tailscale has introduced a feature that enables users to invite anyone to their Tailscale network (tailnet), regardless of domain, allowing for seamless integration of family, friends, external contractors, and partners without requiring temporary email accounts or identity provider additions. This update is particularly beneficial for users on shared domains like Gmail or Outlook, as it facilitates the inclusion of multiple users on the same tailnet. The process involves generating a unique invitation link for new users, who can join using any identity provider, such as passkeys. Existing security controls remain intact, ensuring that admins can manage access rights and monitor user activity through approval processes and audit logs. Additionally, a new admin control allows organizations to restrict users from joining external tailnets, enhancing network security.
