# Responding to a behavior graph invitation
<a name="member-invitation-response"></a>

After you accept an invitation, Detective checks the number of member accounts. The maximum number of member accounts for a behavior graph is 1,200. If your behavior graph already contains 1,200 member accounts, then new accounts cannot be enabled.

After you accept the invitation, Detective is enabled in your account. Detective checks whether your data volume is within the Detective quota. The volume of data flowing into a behavior graph must be less than the maximum allowed by Detective. If the current volume ingested is above the limit of 10 TB per day, you cannot add more accounts and Detective will disable further ingestion of data. The Detective console displays a notification to indicate that data volume is too large and the status remains **Not enabled**.

If you decline the invitation, then it is removed from your list of invitations, and Detective does not use your account data in the behavior graph.
