Sharing

In Libera Space, a document always says, in one sentence, who can open it.

Inside a space

By default, everything in a space is open to all its members, at their level. Some things are for fewer people: a folder of personnel matters, a draft not ready to circulate. Reserve a document or a folder to some of the members, and only they, and the space's managers, keep access.

With someone outside the space

A document can be shared with a person who isn't in the space, to read it or to edit it. They see that document and nothing else. The space stays hidden from them, down to its name.

For someone without an account, create a link. A link:

  • always ends, after a week, a month or three months;
  • can ask for a password, and refuses for a while after too many wrong tries;
  • ends at once if the document goes in the bin, or if the person who made it leaves the space;
  • can be withdrawn at any time.

Whoever opens a link sees that document. The space it comes from stays hidden.

Who decides

The people who manage a space can open a document to others. So can those who wrote it. Everyone else sees who has access, and can ask.
