How to Add Someone to Your Roblox Studio Project

Step 1: Launch Roblox Studio
Launch Roblox Studio by double-clicking on the Roblox Studio icon on your desktop or by searching for it in your computer’s start menu.

Once Roblox Studio is open, open the game or project you want to add someone to. You can do this by clicking on the "File" menu and selecting "Open Project" or by clicking on the "Open" button in the start menu.
Step 3: Go to the Permissions Tab
In the top menu bar, click on the "Edit" menu and select "Permissions" or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P. This will open the Permissions tab in the Properties window.
Step 4: Add the Collaborator
In the Permissions tab, click on the "Add" button next to "Collaborators". Enter the person’s username or ID in the search box, and select their username from the list. You can also add multiple collaborators by separating their usernames or IDs with commas.
Step 5: Set the Permission Level
