+### Invite permission
+
+{{% added-in v="1.18" %}}
+
+Users may want to control who is allowed to invite them to new rooms. This module defines how
+clients and servers can implement invite permission.
+
+#### Account data
+
+{{% event event="m.invite_permission_config" %}}
+
+#### Client behaviour
+
+To reject invites from all users automatically, clients MAY add an [`m.invite_permission_config`](#minvite_permission_config)
+event in the user's [account data](#client-config) with the `default_action` property set to
+`block`. To stop rejecting all invites, the same event without the `default_action` property MUST be
+added to the account data.
+
+When the `default_action` field is unset, other parts of the specification might still have effects
+on invites seen by clients, like [ignoring users](#ignoring-users).
+
+Attempting to send an invite to a user that blocks invites will result in an error response with the
+`M_INVITE_BLOCKED` error code.
+
+#### Server behaviour
+
+When invites to a given user are blocked, the user's homeserver MUST respond to the following
+endpoints with an HTTP 403 status code, with the Matrix error code `M_INVITE_BLOCKED`, if the user
+is invited:
+
+* [`PUT /_matrix/federation/v1/invite/{roomId}/{eventId}`](/server-server-api/#put_matrixfederationv1inviteroomideventid)
+* [`PUT /_matrix/federation/v2/invite/{roomId}/{eventId}`](/server-server-api/#put_matrixfederationv2inviteroomideventid)
+* [`POST /_matrix/client/v3/rooms/{roomId}/invite`](#post_matrixclientv3roomsroomidinvite)
+* [`POST /_matrix/client/v3/createRoom`](#post_matrixclientv3createroom), due to a user in the
+  `invite` list. It is possible for one of the invited users to be rejected whilst the room creation
+  as a whole succeeds.
+* [`PUT /_matrix/client/v3/rooms/{roomId}/state/m.room.member/{stateKey}`](#put_matrixclientv3roomsroomidstateeventtypestatekey),
+  when the `membership` is set to `invite`.
+
+In addition, invite events for this user already in the database, or received over federation, MUST
+NOT be served over client synchronisation endpoints such as [`GET /sync`](#get_matrixclientv3sync).
+ 
+Servers MAY return any suppressed invite events over `GET /sync` if invite blocking is later
+disabled.
+ 
+Other endpoints, such as [`GET /rooms/{roomId}/state`](#get_matrixclientv3roomsroomidstate), are not
+affected by invite blocking: invite events are returned as normal.
+ 
+The Application Services API is also unaffected by invite blocking: invite events are sent over
+[`PUT /_matrix/app/v1/transactions/{txnId}`](/application-service-api/#put_matrixappv1transactionstxnid).

+##### `m.room.power_levels` events accept values as floats
+
+When the value is a float, anything after the decimal point is removed,
+making e.g. `5.17`, `5.42`, and `5` functionally identical. 
+
+For example, this is a valid `m.room.power_levels` event in this room version:
+
+```json
+{
+  "content": {
+    "ban": 50,
+    "events": {
+      "m.room.power_levels": 100
+    },
+    "events_default": 0,
+    "state_default": 50,
+    "users": {
+      "@example:example.org": 100,
+      "@alice:localhost": 50,
+      "@bob:localhost": 50.57
+    },
+    "users_default": 0
+  },
+  "origin_server_ts": 1432735824653,
+  "room_id": "!jEsUZKDJdhlrceRyVU:example.org",
+  "sender": "@example:example.org",
+  "state_key": "",
+  "type": "m.room.power_levels"
+}
+```
+
+In this example, both `@bob:localhost` and `@alice:localhost` have the same effective
+power level of `50`, even though the values are technically different.
+
+When a float written in exponential notation is unpacked, the decimal portion is removed
+afterward; for example, `5.114698E4` becomes `51146.98`, which is then truncated to `51146`.
+
+Note that, since this room version does not enforce that events comply with the requirements
+of [Canonical JSON](/appendices#canonical-json), power levels can be formatted as floats.
