How can static method access class variable in Python?

You can access it as InviteManager.INVITE_MESSAGE, but a cleaner solution is to change the static method to a class method:

@classmethod
@missing_input_not_allowed
def invite(cls, email):
    return cls.INVITE_MESSAGE

(Or, if your code is really as simple as it looks, you can replace the whole class with a bunch of functions and constants in a module. Modules are namespaces.)

Try:

class InviteManager():
    ALREADY_INVITED_MESSAGE = "You are already on our invite list"
    INVITE_MESSAGE = "Thank you! we will be in touch soon"

    @staticmethod
    @missing_input_not_allowed
    def invite(email):
        try:
            db.session.add(Invite(email))
            db.session.commit()
        except IntegrityError:
            return InviteManager.ALREADY_INVITED_MESSAGE
        return InviteManager.INVITE_MESSAGE

The InviteManager is in the scope of it's staticmethods.

Just realized, I needed @classmethod

class InviteManager():
    ALREADY_INVITED_MESSAGE = "You are already on our invite list"
    INVITE_MESSAGE = "Thank you! we will be in touch soon"

    @classmethod
    @missing_input_not_allowed
    def invite(cls, email):
        try:
            db.session.add(Invite(email))
            db.session.commit()
        except IntegrityError:
            return cls.ALREADY_INVITED_MESSAGE
        return cls.INVITE_MESSAGE
