When sharing a Space, you can choose the level of allowed permissions.
The hierarchy of permissions allows detailed governance for data within your workspace. Have fine-tuned control over who can see and do what.
There are four permission levels for Spaces:
Admin
Edit
View
Guest
Members of Teams and Enterprise accounts cannot see Spaces created by other members until those projects are shared with them! Remember to share projects with anyone who needs access.
Admin
Space Admins have the most allowable actions. They can do anything with Spaces.
The original creator of the project is the project admin by default
Can create and edit content in the Space
Can edit the name and units in the Space
Can Invite others to see the Space
Can change other’s permissions on the Space
Can delete the Space
Edit
Space editors can add and edit in-space content, but cannot change Space metadata or share.
Can create and edit content within the Space
Cannot share, change permissions, or delete the Space
View
Space viewers can open a Space as a view-only state.
Can open Space, but can only view the layers and data
Cannot create or edit any content
Cannot share, change permissions, or delete the Space
Guest
Space guests can view project metadata in a Space.
Can only see a subset of project data from a Space
Guest access is an add-on for enterprise accounts. Reach out to sales to inquire about upgrading.
Space Permissions vs Project Permissions
Spaces and projects are separate entities. Remember, Spaces contain a curated view of data, included a portfolio layer and other data layers.
The projects displayed in an individual's Space are dependent on the project-level governance. In other words, its likely that every workspace member's view of the same Space will show different project depending on which projects they each have access to.
Similarly, Space permissions do not affect project permissions. A member who has admin rights to a Space does not necessarily have admin permissions to every project in their view.
Note: Enterprise account Workspace Administrator rights override project and space permission levels. Workspace administrators are always able to see, edit, share, and delete any projects or spaces in the workspace (when in audit mode).
