Inviting Users to Register with VPP
Before you can assign content purchased through VPP to users, the users must be registered with VPP. You can invite users to register by sending a VPP invitation that prompts them to access a registration page where they are guided through the steps for registering. Once users are registered with VPP, they can receive the content that is assigned to them.
