Project access

Give your organization visibility into your projects

Written by Ellen Kajca

A project has one of two access settings:

  • Only project members: only members can find and open the project.

  • Public to workspace: anyone in the workspace can find and open the project.

What happens when a project is public?

The project shows in Project Navigator for everyone in the workspace. Its actions also show in summary views for non-members, so managers can see their team's work without joining every project.

Non-members get read-only access. To let someone edit actions, add them as a project member with Full access (see Project member permissions).

Non-members can:

  • Open the project in any layout

  • Open and view actions

  • Comment on actions

  • Follow actions and get notifications on them

  • Drag an action into a chat group

  • Add the project to a summary view

Non-members can't:

  • Edit actions

  • Be assigned actions or subactions (they do not show in the assignee picker or Team view)

  • Edit project members or project settings

  • See the project chat group

Make a project public

Users who can edit project members can change this setting.

  1. Open the project.

  2. Click More (⋮) in the project header and select Edit project.

  3. Under Access, select Permissions.

  4. In Access and visibility, select Public to workspace.

  5. Click Save changes.

If your workspace turned off public projects, this option is not available.
