SNP members are being given the opportunity to submit ideas for policies to be included in the party's general election manifesto.
More than 93,000 people, almost three-quarters of whom signed up to the party in the wake of the independence referendum, have been invited to take part in the consultation.
Ideas that fit with "the core values and principles" of the SNP will be considered by the party's policy team for inclusion in its manifesto for May's Westminster election.
The party said the consultation reflected Nicola Sturgeon's pledge to be the most accessible First Minister ever and would continue to foster the engagement with politics seen during the referendum campaign.
Deputy leader Stewart Hosie said: "Since polling day, the SNP has seen our membership grow from around 25,000 to over 93,000 - around one in 50 of the adult population in Scotland - which is just one remarkable indication of the change that has swept through Scotland.
"The SNP are extremely keen to reach out to our new members, who reflect all of the many diverse communities of Scotland, and benefit from their experience.
"Today we are offering all of our members the opportunity to take part in shaping our manifesto - to submit ideas to put forward their ideas for consideration.
"This is an unparalleled opportunity for consultation with our membership across Scotland.
"A strong team of SNP MPs at Westminster will stand up for Scotland - working to stop the renewal of Trident, take forward an alternative to austerity and protect our place in Europe.
"Our manifesto is an important step on the path to making our voice heard at Westminster and including our members in the process will greatly strengthen our campaign."
