Access is a feature that grants digital workplace members the ability to perform specific actions on various items within a workplace, such as a page, space, channel, or content piece within a channel. These assigned actions include the ability to read, write, and/or edit an item.
Access is assigned by applying one of four access levels to a member or group of members: Read, Write, Edit, and Full. Members with no assigned access will receive a message explaining that they have not been granted access. The only members allowed to assign access are designated enterprise, workplace, and space administrators and users with Full access to an item.
Actions associated with each access level:
- Read: View and reply to content
- Write: View, reply to, add content, and add versions
- Edit: View, reply to, add, contribute, modify, and organize content
- Full: View, reply, add, contribute, modify, organize, manage, and control content
