I’m trying to figure out how highrise invites users. When inviting a  
user, the following url is created:

[highrisehq.com/users/new/e586dbbccad1](http://highrisehq.com/users/new/e586dbbccad1)

Where is that random string being stored? Is it a custom resource  
method?

I would like my users to be able to set up their own account, rather  
than my app creating an account and asking them to login. Can anyone  
explain to me how this is done? Thanks.
