Manage workspace access on Enterprise Grid If you’re part of an Enterprise Grid organization, you can control how members find and join your workspace.
Choose the right level of access:
Open Anyone in your organization can view and join the workspace.
By Request Any org member can request to join the workspace.
Invite Only Any org member can be invited to join (by a Workspace Owner/Admin) or added to the workspace (by an Org Owner/Admin).
Hidden Members cannot view the workspace and must be invited to join (by a Workspace Owner/Admin) or added (by an Org Owner/Admin).
Note: Be mindful of including sensitive information or words in a hidden workspace’s URL. If for some reason a non-member has the workspace’s URL, it will simply redirect to the org’s sign-in page.
Tip: Members can read Join or leave workspaces on an Enterprise Grid org for more details.
