5. Stakeholder:

This role is suited for individuals who have been asked to take part in your consultation as members of a closed audience.

Respondent users create an account upon submission of their first contribution, if they decided to provide an email address (which is optional). Upon submission, if they did provide an email address, they will instantly receive a verification email. Users can later log in to their platform profile page by a password-less magic link request, which is sent to their email address. Respondent users have a status:

Pending - email verification was not completed, their contribution will not be made public

Confirmed - email verification was completed successfully, their contribution will be available publicly

Respondents who do not provide an email address do not have an account created in the Commonplace application.
