I just want to check if it is a regression bug. I know we can manually add the users to groups.

As per the comment below by @techAPJ ,

[https://meta.discourse.org/t/sending-bulk-user-invites/16468/60](https://meta.discourse.org/t/sending-bulk-user-invites/16468/60)

**expected behaviour** : when an user with same email address is already present, instead of inviting the user again just the group addition will happen.

**present behaviour** : invite process failed with an error that “email address is already present” and the group addition didn’t happen.

**tried steps** : bulk invite via csv, individual invite via api, individual invite via ui
