wherein the first group-based communication channel is associate with a first group-based communication workspace of the plurality of group-based communication workspaces and having a first group-based communication channel identifier, and

the group-based communication workspace add request comprising a second group-based communication user identifier associated with a second client device and a second user; and

rendering the group-based communication workspace add request within a second group-based communication channel interface of a second group-based communication channel,

wherein the second group-based communication channel is associated with the first group-based communication workspace of the plurality of group-based communication workspaces and having a second group-based communication channel identifier;

receiving a group-based communication workspace add request decision from a third client device associated with at least one group-based workspace administrator;

in response to determining that the group-based communication workspace add request decision is positive, transmitting a group-based communication workspace invite to the second user via the second client device; and

in response to determining that the group-based communication workspace add request decision is negative, transmitting an indication of denial to the first user via the first client device.

9. The system of claim 8 , further comprising:

generating the group-based communication workspace add request via a first group-based communication channel interface on the first client device.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein when the group-based communication workspace add request decision is positive, further comprising:

transmitting an indication of approval to the first client device.

11. The system of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving a group-based communication workspace invite acceptance from the second client device.

12. The system of claim 11 , further comprising:

after receiving the group-based communication workspace invite acceptance, adding the first group-based communication workspace identifier to a group-based communication approved workspaces list associated with the second group-based communication user identifier.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the second user is not associated with the first group-based communication system workspace until after receiving the group-based communication workspace invite acceptance.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the group-based communication workspace add request is one of a plurality of group-based communication workspace add requests that form a batch request, the method further comprising:

comparing each one of the group-based communication workspace add requests of the plurality of group-based communication workspace add requests to each other one of the group-based communication workspace add requests of the plurality of group-based communication workspace add requests; and

deleting duplicate workspace add requests within the batch request.

15. A method for allowing a first user to invite a second user to be a new member of a group-based communication system, the group-based communication system comprising a plurality of group-based communication channels organized among a plurality of group-based communication workspaces, the method comprising the steps of:
