Setting up access to a board
You can share your board with other users. Simply copy the board link from your address bar and send it to your colleague.
If someone shares a board with you, add it to Favorites so you can easily find it later. To do this, click to the top right of the board name. You can browse your favorite boards under Boards by selecting the Favorites filter.
By default, board actions are available to all employees of the organization. Access can be restricted for specific employees, but the organization administrator always has full access to the board.
Types of board access
Only the board owner or a user with Full access can restrict access to the board.
- Open the board page.
- At the top, click All employees.
- Add users or groups to grant them access to the board.
- Select the actions that you want to allow the user or group:
- Use: Permission to view and manage issues on the board, with options to add, group, and sort them.
- Edit: Permission to manage issues as well as create and edit sprints and columns on the board.
- Full access: Permission to manage columns and sprints, set up planning poker and the board's auto actions, and manage access.
- Revoke access: Click this to remove a user or group from the list.
- Click Save.
If the board was created along with a project, its access settings will always match those of the project.
Changing the board owner
Only the current owner or a user with Full access permission can change the board owner.
- Open the board page.
- Click at the top.
- In the settings window to the right of the current owner's name, click and specify the new owner.
- Click Save.
After the changes are saved, the previous owner retains full access to the board.
