# Credit songwriters and teams
Source: https://docs.aden.space/docs/help/your-music/track-collaborators/add-collaborators

Add songwriters and whole artist teams to a track's credits, including people who aren't on Aden yet.
## Add a songwriter [#add-a-songwriter]

1. Open the track's **Collaborators**, then **People**, and click **Add user or team**.
2. On the **Songwriter** tab, search by name or email, or tap a face under **Recent**.
3. Click the roles under their name to pick or type them, like Writer or Producer.
4. Add an email for someone not on Aden yet, so they get an invite.
5. Press **Add** for another row, then **Add collaborator** to save them all.

The icon by each person tells you what happens:

* A green ✓: they're matched to an Aden account you've worked with.
* An envelope: they're not on Aden and will get an email invite from you.
* A plain person: credited by name only. Add an email to invite them.

## Add an artist team [#add-an-artist-team]

1. On the **Artist team** tab, search or tap a team under **Recent**. Type an @handle for a team you haven't worked with.
2. Choose **Collaboration**, or switch on **Feature (ft.)**.
3. Choose whether the team shows in the public credits.

The team's artists fill in as rows, so you can credit them and set their splits right away. If you're an admin of that team, the link confirms at once. Otherwise the team gets a request to confirm, and the artists you picked stay credited either way.

## A team that isn't on Aden [#a-team-that-isnt-on-aden]

Tick "This team isn't on Aden yet" and type their name. They're credited at once. Share an invite link so they can join and claim the team, or use **Email invite** to send it to everyone filed under it.

## While creating a track [#while-creating-a-track]

The new track form has the same panel. Artist teams are credited through their artists until the track exists; link the team itself from the track's **Collaborators** page afterwards.

## Teammates not on the track yet [#teammates-not-on-the-track-yet]

Teammates of the track's teams who aren't on it show under the writers as dashed rows. Pick their roles to add them.
