Project Access

Overview

It is now possible for Hub admins to manage their projects’ visibility by navigating to the Project settings page. Projects can either be set as private or limited.

• Private – Only users who are directly added to the project can access it.
• Limited – Users with whitelisted email domains can access this project as a reader. However, they will not appear in the project’s user list. In addition, users who are directly added to the project can also access it.

It is also possible to define project visibility when creating a project. By default the project access is set to Private.

Other project members will be able to identify which projects are private or limited from the Projects page. They can also filter by project access.

How to whitelist a domain to give allow users to have access to “limited” projects?

From the Hub settings page, hub owners and admins can whitelist a domain to easily give access to limited projects to other hub members.

What is a whitelisted domain?

A whitelisted domain is when a domain is added to a list so that the users matching this domain can perform specific actions. In this case, the users with whitelisted domains will be able to see all limited projects in the projects list and access them as readers.

The domain needs to have the following characteristics: domain name + top-level domain (TLD), such as .com, .org, .net, etc.

There is no limit to the number of domains you can whitelist. Whitelisted domains can also be removed at any time.
