Managing users' access to a restricted workspace

Manage users' access to a restricted workspace through workspace management and/or user management

Account admins can control users' access to a restricted workspace through workspace settings and/or user management.

Good to know:

  • Account admins will have access to all workspaces (including restricted)
  • You can select one or multiple users at a time to grant access using the multiple user selector
  • Only viewers' access to restricted workspaces can be changed through user management. To change collaborator access to restricted workspaces, please use workspace settings.
  • When access is removed from a user that is collaborator or admin, the transfer ownership flow is triggered
