There are several levels of Workspace and user role permissions. Learn about default permissions and the permissions you can configure to keep your Workspace secure.
User-level permissions
By default, when you invite a member to your Workspace, they have full edit permissions to all public locations and items. You can edit members' permissions to individual locations or items.
Guests and limited members can only be invited to access specific locations and items. When sharing these locations and items, you can assign them a permission level.
This table shows the four user-level permissions available for all locations and items:
| Level | Description |
| Full edit | Permits the person to create, edit, share, and delete locations or items. |
| Edit | Permits the person to make changes to a location or item, including sharing it with others. The person isn't able to delete the location or item. |
| Comment | Permits the person to add and reply to comments on a location or item. |
| View only | Gives the person read-only access to a location or item. |
Learn how user-level permissions are assigned and edited.
Workspace-level permissions
Every plan has the same set of default Workspace-level user permissions.
Certain Workspace-level permissions can be edited in your Security & Permissions settings. To access these settings:
- In the upper-left corner, click your Workspace avatar and select Settings.
- In the All settings sidebar, click Security & Permissions.
- Scroll down to see the Invite Permissions, Custom Role Permissions, and Advanced Permissions sections.
Individual permissions
Limited members view only and guests have four individual permissions for time estimates, time tracking, adding or removing tags, or creating views.
Manage people settings
The Manage people settings track the users in your Workspace, their info, and activity. Here, you can edit guests and limited members access to items and locations, and convert user roles.
