Zone access

Zone access

Zone access lets you control who can see and work in each Zone within a Space. This is helpful when different parts of your Space are meant for different teams or external collaborators.

By default, all Zones in a Space are accessible to everyone in the Space. You can change this to allow access to specific Zones only.



You can manage Zone access:

  • For existing Spacemates or Teams

  • While adding new Spacemates

  • For externally shared Spaces

  1. Click the Share button at the top-right corner of the Space to open the Collaborators pane.

  2. Hover over a Spacemate or Team name.

  3. Click the down arrow next to their Space access permission.

  4. Select Manage Zone access.

  5. In the Manage Zone access dialog:

    • “All Zones” will be selected by default.

    • Choose Specific Zones and select the Zones you want them to access.

    • Click Apply.

People will only see the Zones you’ve allowed. They will not be aware of the Zones they do not have access to.
