Product version: All versions of inSync Cloud and On-Premises
Problem description
inSync displays the following error message while adding a guest user as a collaborator:
Successfully saved changes. Could not add <guest_userID> as guest(s).
Cause
Druva issues 50 guest user licenses to each inSync Cloud and On-Premises customer. If your users have used up all the 50 guest user licenses and are trying to add more guest users as collaborators, inSync shows this error.
Resolution
For On-Premises deployments:
Check the inSync Server logs (Cportal.log) for the below error while adding the guest user:

Check the Guests user license count under License Summary.
If the Guest licenses are 50 then make a note of the License Key and share the same with the Druva Service Desk team when you request for more licenses.
For Cloud deployments:
Log on to inSync Management Console.
Go to
> My Account.
Under Customer Details if the count against Guest users is 50, contact Druva Service Desk to increase the guest licenses.
