Access to Project Documents

Access to project documents can be managed on different levels:

  • Project level

    Access to all documents in the project is set on the project level by a project administrator. Each project role (e.g. Project Admin, Project Member) can be assigned a specific set of document permissions, such as viewing and editing. All project participants with that role will get the permissions it contains.

  • Folder level

    You can grant viewing, editing, or managing rights for all documents in a specific folder to any organization member.

  • Document level

    Using the Share functionality, you can grant viewing, editing, or managing rights for an individual document to any organization member.
