# Condense Console

# Condense Console

The **Condense Console** is the centralized administration portal for managing your Condense organization. It provides a single place to manage environments, invite organization members, configure account settings, and launch **Condense Core** for authorized environments.

The Console acts as the entry point into the Condense platform, while **Condense Core** provides the environment-specific workspace for managing connectors, pipelines, Kafka resources, transforms, applications, and monitoring.

***

* View and access Condense environments

After your access is validated, you are redirected to the **Condense Core** instance associated with the selected environment.

Within Condense Core, you can manage environment-specific resources such as connectors, pipelines, transforms, Kafka resources, applications, monitoring, and other platform services based on your assigned permissions.

* Remove member access

***

# Invite Members

Member invitations are controlled through the organization's **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)** policy.

Only users with the required permissions to manage organization members can send invitations.

An invitation email is sent immediately to each recipient.

***

# Invitation Workflow
