Manage sharing and general link access

Before you start

You must be the space owner to modify sharing settings.


Open the Invite Users modal

Do one of the following:

  • Click the icon next to the space name and select Members.
  • Click Invite in the top right of the space header.

Change a collaborator's permissions

In the People with access section:

  1. Click the role dropdown next to a collaborator's name and select Can Edit, Can Comment, or Can View Only.
  2. Check or uncheck share (lets them share the space with others) or download (lets them download files).
  3. To remove someone, click the red icon next to their name.
  4. Click Done when finished.

Change general link access

In the General Access section, click the dropdown next to Anyone with the link and select a permission level. The default is Can View Only.

To copy the link, click Copy Link at the bottom of the modal.


Tips and edge cases

  • To add new collaborators, see Invite people to a space.
  • For a description of each permission level, see Permission levels in CADchat levels.
  • If a removed collaborator still has access, they may be rejoining via the general link. Restrict the General Access setting to prevent this.
  • The share toggle controls whether that person can reshare the space, it does not affect their ability to view or edit content.
