# Adding Dynamic Users

**Dynamic Participants**

Dynamic Participants allow selected signatories to add additional participants during an active signing workflow, without restarting or recreating the document. This capability is controlled at the signatory level.

***

**Enable Dynamic Participant Access**

Dynamic participant access is granted by enabling a specific permission while configuring a signatory in the **Add Participants** step.

**Steps:**

1. In the **Add Participants** step, click on the signatory from the left panel to open their **Configure settings** panel on the right.
2. Under **Signatory Settings**, locate the toggle labelled **Allow to add exceptional users and define access controls**.
3. Enable the toggle to grant this permission to the signatory.
4. Click **Save Details** to apply the configuration.

Once enabled, this signatory will be permitted to add new participants during the signing process.

**How Dynamic Participants Work During Signing**

* Only signatories with the **Allow to add exceptional users and define access controls** permission enabled can add participants during an active workflow.
* Authorised signatories can add new reviewers or signers while the workflow is in progress, and assign roles and access permissions to the newly added participants.
* The workflow continues without interruption or restart.

**Completion Behavior**

Once the signing process is completed, all participants — both original and dynamically added — receive the final signed document along with the completion certificate.
