Sharing & Permissions within Workspaces

Chelsea LeBlanc

I have a Workspace created that houses a number of different dashboards, sheets and reports. If I share the entire workspace with a group of people, is it possible to go in and remove them from select dashboards/reports? Most users will have access to all assets but there are certain pieces we'd like to restrict access on. I'm hoping this is an option so that I don't have to share individual pieces within the workspace. Thank you!

    Chelsea - I hope you submitted a request. It would be helpful to adjust access on specific documents as needed. It's a little unwieldy to store something related to a given project in a different workspace.

    I agree I have a sheet for a specific project that I need to store separately because while most of the project data is available to a group of people, permissions on this particular sheet need to be restricted for data protection purposes.

    While most of the time it makes sense that everyone in a workspace can see everything added, tt would be useful to be able to tailor permissions within a workspace when necessary.

    Hi, I am still looking to do the permissions changes within a Workspace described above. Does anyone know if there has been any update on this since 2021/2? I am a full license admin and want to give collaborators access to workspaces for organizational purposes but then update permissions to certain grid sheets within the workspace thereafter.

    Thanks!

Ok, I found it. Classic case of submit something for help, then find the answer. I think what may have happened previously, is that I turned on all the filters, but since there isn't one for a Deleted Row, maybe the Deleted Row was hidden. When I came back, I didn't click anything on the filters for the Activity Log and when scrolling through looking for the 'magic' delete word, I found the record I was looking for.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":447,"urlcode":"activity-log","name":"Activity Log"}]},{"discussionID":108801,"type":"question","name":"Adding users to our account if they are already licensed on another account","excerpt":"Hiya, Couldn't find an answer to my exact question, so hoping someone can help.

Excellent, and yes, I am too! Thanks!<\/p>

I'd recommend using Dynamic View.<\/p>

Share it with your company domain.<\/p>

When the user accesses it, they would only see their own submissions.<\/p>
