This article helps you fix the “Member not found” message displayed when you want to share access to an account with members of your Google directory.
Cause of the Problem
When you log in to your Cerby workspace using Google as your identity provider, you must grant Cerby access to your Google account. The goal is to leverage your contacts and your organization’s GSuite to share accounts in Cerby.
The “Member not found” message is displayed in the Share Account dialog box of the Cerby dashboard, as shown in Figure 1. This dialog box is displayed when you click the Share Account button of the corresponding account card from the All accounts view.

The problem occurs when you enter the user name of the member of your Google directory in the search bar, but one of the following conditions is met:
Access to your Google account was not successfully granted to Cerby.
The member of your Google directory does not exist.
Solution
To solve the sharing account problem, you must complete the following main steps:
The following sections describe each step.
1. Log Out from Your Cerby Workspace
To log out from your Cerby workspace, complete the following steps:
Click the Hi there <user name>! button located at the bottom of the left navigation drawer. A drop-down list is displayed.
Select the Log out option from the list. The dashboard closes and the Cerby signing-in page is displayed.
2. Log In to Your Cerby Workspace Allowing Access to Your Google Account
To log in to your Cerby workspace allowing access to your Google account, complete the following steps:
