Space access control
Use space access control to decide:
- What all company members can do in the space
- What explicitly added space members can do in the space
Access levels for spaces#
No Access#
Users cannot see or access the space.
View Access#
Users can see the space and its accessible content, including documents, tasks, and non-secret goals and projects.
Comment Access#
Includes View Access, plus commenting on tasks, discussions, documents, and other commentable resources.
Edit Access#
Includes Comment Access, plus the ability to:
- Edit the space name and purpose
- Enable or disable space tools
- Create discussions
- Create projects
- Create goals
- Create documents, files and links
Full Access#
Includes Edit Access, plus the ability to:
- Delete the space
- Manage company-wide access settings
- Manage individual member access settings
Company-wide vs. individual member access#
Each space has two main permission layers:
- Company-wide access: baseline access for all company members
- Member access: explicit access for individually added space members
If someone receives both, Operately applies the most permissive access level.
Secret spaces#
Set company-wide access to No Access to make a space secret. Only people with explicit space-level access can see and interact with the space.
Space managers#
People with Full Access can manage access, including:
- Changing company-wide access
- Adding or removing members
- Promoting or reassigning space managers
