Different permissions in Workspace

Carren O

Hi everyone,

I created Document A, Document B, Document C, Document D in a workspace.

The desired permission levels per document are:

Document A: Team Leads - viewer, User 1 - editor-can share

Document B: Team leads - viewer, User 2 - editor-can share

Document C: Team leads - viewer, User 3 - editor-can share

I understand that in a workspace, the permission is applied at the workspace level and not on the document level so that means user 1, 2, 3 will have access to all documents but they should not be seeing each other's document and only the team leads should have access to all documents. The main reason documents were put in a workspace is centralization.

Is there any way I can still achieve centralization of all documents but all users won't see each other's document?

Thank you so much!

Hi @Carren O

I hope you're well and safe!

You could share the individual sheets with the users and the Workspace with the team lead.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Hi Andree,

Thank you so much for the prompt response and thank you, I'm well and safe. Hope you are too! :)

Sorry for my confusion. The sheets are under one workspace so the permission level of each user is the same across all sheets.

User 1 will have editor-can share permission across Doc A, Doc B, Doc C which is not right because user 1 should only be working on DocA.

Or are you meaning to put Doc A to C under Sheets for Users' access and also put Doc A to C under workspace for Team leads' access?

Thank you.
