Manage sharing and general link access
Overview
The Invite Users modal lets you manage who has access to a space and how a shared link behaves. You can restrict or expand access at any time.
Steps
- In a space, click the gear icon and select Members, or click the Invite button.
- In the Invite Users modal:
- To change someone's permission level, click their current role dropdown and select Can Edit, Can Comment, or Can View Only.
- To adjust share or download rights, check or uncheck the share and download boxes under their name.
- To remove someone, click the red minus icon next to their name.
- To change the general link access, click the dropdown next to Anyone with the link under General Access and choose a permission level.
- Click Done when finished.
Additional details
- General Access defaults to Can View Only — anyone with the link can view but not edit or comment.
- The share checkbox controls whether a user can share the space with others. The download checkbox controls whether they can download the original files.
- Changes take effect immediately for all affected users.
Troubleshooting
- If a collaborator still has access after you removed them, they may be re-joining via a general access link. Restrict the General Access setting to limit this.
- If you cannot modify permissions, you may not be the space owner.
