# Invitation Acceptance


In Amazon Macie, an *invitation*, also referred to as a *membership invitation*, is a request to become a member of an organization in Macie. An *organization* is a set of Macie accounts that are centrally managed as a group of related accounts. For more information, see [Managing multiple accounts](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/macie/latest/user/macie-accounts.html) in the *Amazon Macie User Guide*.

You can use the Invitation Acceptance resource to access membership invitations that you've received and haven't responded to, and to accept one of those invitations. To accept an invitation, you have to specify the unique identifier for the invitation and the account ID for the AWS account that sent the invitation. To find these IDs, you can use the [Invitation List](invitations.md) resource.
