Space Access and Permissions

This post is also available in: Deutsch

If you use a standard space type, the users of that space are inherited from the workspace and you cannot manage them in space.

When collaborating on projects, it’s important to have clear and defined levels of access and permissions in the space. This ensures that space users have the appropriate level of access to complete their tasks while also protecting sensitive information.

There are 3 levels of access to a space:

  • Owner
  • Member
  • Visitor

Each time you want to add a user to the space, you need to decide what level of access to the space the user will need.

Only space users can see and enter the space. The space is invisible to other users.

Space users permissions

Each level of access to the space is associated with different permissions. These are listed in the following table.
