Is there a way through the API for us to add a user to the "allowed user" list for a private forum? We want to automatically allow new beta users to get forum access.

It's possible using Single Sign On function 

Just pass additional parameter allowed_private_forums: [forum_id],
inside SSO token.

Try to put forum_id in square brackets

"allowed_private_forums":[10505]

Many thanks for your help with this - up and running now. Your support is excellent. Feel free to use the VB.NET SSO_TOKEN generation code I sent - might help someone else get up and running with a VB.NET site.

Replace the [forum_id] with ID of your forum. Go to your Project Settings -> Community forums and check ID for selected forum.
