Permissions

Guides helps you keep your information private and secure, and only available to the people you want it to see. Below provides an overview of how permissions work.

Type Permission Levels Users
Organisation Public Only spaces and guides that are public will be visible to the user
Member Joining an organisation as a member gives access to all open spaces and public guides.

NOTE: for access to private spaces any member will need to be separately invited.
Space Public Anyone on the internet can access and join this Space.
Open Anyone who is a member of the organisation or has been invited directly can access this Space.

Upgrade to Teams to invite external people to an open Space.
Private Only people who have been invited to this space have access.
Upgrade to Teams to start private Space.
Guide Public Anyone on the internet can read the Guide
Private Only people invited have access. This Guide can only be added to private or open Spaces.

Guides uses permission hierarchy so a Guide that is created in a private or open Space will automatically be set to private (which can be changed). Similarly, a Guide that is created in a public Space will be initially set as public (which can be changed).
