Different collaborators need different access to content

When you’re collaborating in a mural, it’s helpful to know who can access and edit your work. For example, after a workshop you might want to restrict permissions for a certain collaborator. In other cases, you need to give a co-facilitator the ability to set the timer, run a voting session, or use one of the other Facilitation Superpowers. If you’re designated as the owner of a mural, then you can manage the permissions and access in your mural.

Within a mural there are three levels of permissions. 

  • View only: members can see content but not change anything
  • Edit: participants can see contents, add, remove, and change them on MURAL.
  • Facilitate: Leverage the facilitation superpowers in a mural, like the timer, voting, summon, and more

Change access for individual collaborators

To change the access permissions for individuals in the mural:

  1. Click the icon of a person next to the SHARE button in the mural. A drop-down menu will show your collaborators. The list of online collaborators appear first in the list.
  2. Hover over the name of the person you want to change permissions. You will see their current level of access.

Switch their permissions between edit, view, or facilitate.

Change access for individual collaborators

As a mural owner, you can also change permissions for members from the same menu by selecting manage mural members at the bottom of the list.

Fancy seeing you here. Gino from MURAL ready to talk to you about user permissions. In your murals, there's three types of access the user can have, there is view only, which will allow them to see all the content but not change anything, and have access which will allow them to see all of the content and add, remove and change content on your mural.

And last but not least, facilitation access. Only members are able to be actual facilitators in your murals, which would give them access to the facilitator superpowers we have in our digital solution.

The way that you can manage these permissions is by going to the top right and clicking the silhouette of the person hovering over the name of the person you want to change their permissions to then clicking the current access they have and editing accordingly. You have my permission to now take this information and shared with the world. Thank you.
