Configuring access to a page

Edit access rights for the page to set which users can view and edit it. You can only grant access permissions to users who are members of your organization.

Access permissions define who can view and edit the page's resources, such as files and dynamic tables.

To configure page permissions:

1. In the top right corner of the page, click Actions and select Settings → Access rights, or click the button that specifies the page access mode (by default, Available to all employees).

   If you are an organization administrator and you cannot access the page, you can only request access from the page author.

2. Specify who the page will be available to:

   • All employees: To all employees of your organization.

   • Only authors: To the page authors and organization administrator.

   • Specific employees: Specify the usernames of people or the group to grant access to.

   • Same as parent page: Access level is inherited from the parent page.

   Alert

   Avoid changing the access settings for the Wiki home page.

   By default, the author of the Wiki home page is a service account. If the "Only authors" access type is selected for this page, other users cannot access it. To allow others to access the page, click the https://wiki.yandex.com/homepage/.settings?tabId=access link and change the access parameters.

3. Click Save.

Users who have no access to the page will not be able to view and edit it. You can also allow users to view the page, but prohibit its editing.

Creating an invite link for a page

You can use an invite link to quickly share access to the page with other users. This method doesn't support access inheritance, so the cluster structure will remain hidden.

To create an invite link:

1. Open a Wiki page and click Share on the top panel.

2. In the Share the link to this page window, click Create.

3. Select a validity period for the invite link:

   • Day
   • Week
   • Month
   • 3 months
   • Year

   You can adjust this period at any time as long as the link is valid.

4. Copy the link by clicking and share it with your colleagues.

To delete an invite link, click at the top of the window. Deleting the link won't revoke the access it provided. Users with access can still open the page with a direct link after the invite link was deleted.

Managing the list of users with access by link

To view and edit the list of users who gained access via the invite, click Share and expand the Users with access by link list:

• To revoke access for a specific user, hover over their name and click .

• To revoke access for all users, to the right of the list, click → Remove everyone.

Getting access to a restricted page

You can request access if the page's author has restricted it.

1. Open the page that you want to access.

2. Fill out a request. If you want to request access for a group of users, make sure to specify this.

3. Click Request access.

You'll get access to the page after the page authors approve your request.

If the page's author no longer works at the organization, you can still submit an access request. An organization administrator will receive and process your request.

If the administrator doesn't have access to the page, they can assign a new author for it.

Prohibiting page editing

By default, all users with access to the page can edit it. You can make the page read-only if you are its author:

1. Open the page.

2. In the top-right corner of the page, click Actions and select Settings.

3. In the Page settings window, select Only the authors can edit the page. Users with access to the page can view it, but they can't edit it.

   The administrator of the organization can edit the page even if its author prohibited editing it.
