# Panel Members Distribution

## 👪 **What is a panel members distribution ?**

The panel members distribution is a powerful feature that will use the [panelists](/panels/panelists.md) of your [panels](/panels.md) as recipients. 

This way you can for example create a [panel ](/panels.md)that acts as a contact list and send out invitations to members of that panel or you could link a panel to one an existing SQL table that has contacts and re-use that existing information to send out your invitations.

{% hint style="info" %}
Panelist attributes can be pipe anywhere in the invitation text using the `++yourpanelattributepipe++` tag that can be found in the panel attribute settings page. 
{% endhint %}

1. Select the panel having the panelists that will be used as recipients.
2. Select the attribute that will be used as recipient value (email / phone) for your campaign.
3. Send your invitations to all panel members or only to a few selected one. 

{% hint style="warning" %}
While automatically enabled by ngSurvey during the campaign launch its important to note that the i[nvitation code security item](/form-management/security/security-items/invitation-code.md) must be enabled on your survey to validate the invitation codes and to link the email to the respondent.
