Overview

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

There are 3 levels of access to a workspace: 

  • Owner
  • Member
  • Visitor

ExampleHR workspace users.

You can manage users only in the private type of workspace.

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

Only workspace users can see the workspace. It is invisible to other KanBo users.
