Do you want to disable sign ups entirely or only allow specific users to be able to sign up?

03/27/2023, 9:35 AMYou can refer to: https://supertokens.com/docs/emailpassword/advanced-customizations/apis-override/usage
That will explain how to go about overriding the sign up function in the backend

03/27/2023, 9:38 AMBoth flows are possible so the override approach will let you stick with the normal sign up flow
And the invite flow docs help you setup that flow
