# Add New Team

**Audience:** Super Admin, Admin, Supervisor\
**Page type:** Task guide\
**Status:** Draft\

**Last verified:** 2026-04-06

## Purpose

Use this guide to create a new team record.

## Before you start

* You must be signed in to Compassly.
* You must have permission to add teams.
* You should know the team title and location.

3. Select the **Add new** button.
4. Select **Add new team**.

## Required fields

Complete the required fields marked with an asterisk:

The **Team members** field is optional when creating the team.

## Steps

1. Open the **Add new team** page.
2. Enter the **Title**.
3. Select the **Location**.
4. Select one or more **Team members** if you want to assign them during initial setup.
5. Use **See all** if you want to review the full assigned-team-member list.
6. Select **Apply**.

## Notes

* You can use the **Plus** button next to **Location** to create a new location if that workflow is available in your role.
* Team titles are treated as case-insensitive when saved.

## 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://compassly.gitbook.io/compassly-docs/core-modules/team-members/teams/add-new-team.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
