Written by Joice
Updated over a week ago

Overview

Account Admins and Owners can restrict which users are allowed to see all rooms in the workspace. When this setting is enabled, only users with a Manager, Admin, or Owner role can view everyone's rooms. Members and Content Editors will only see rooms they own or are directly assigned to.


How to Enable

  1. Go to Account Settings

  2. Open the Account Permissions section

  3. Toggle on "Only Manager level and up can see everyone's rooms"

  4. Click Save

⚠️ Only Admins and Owners can change this setting.

  • This setting is off by default — all users can see everyone's rooms unless an Admin or Owner enables the restriction.
