CANNOT_INVITE_SELF
What it means
Structured ConvexError thrown by inviteSeats when one of the submitted emails equals the owner's own normalized email. Owners already hold the Business entitlement; inviting yourself is rejected while iterating the invitee list.
Solutions
- Remove the owner's own address from the invite list
- Filter the signed-in user's email out of the batch in the invite UI
