Who can see my work in Journeys?

Check Privacy on the Socra or Journey. Private work is access-controlled. Published means anyone can view it. New work can inherit its parent’s privacy, so check the destination before adding sensitive material.

Access to private work

People can receive access through the Space, a parent Journey or a direct share. Sharing a Journey gives access to work inside it. Sharing a single Socra does not grant access to the rest of its Journey.

In Privacy, Space permissions controls access inherited from the Space. Turning it off does not remove a direct share or access inherited from a parent Journey. Inspect those sources too when you need to restrict access.

The owner or a collaborator with permission to manage privacy can change these settings. Reopen Privacy after a change to confirm the saved values.

Roles

  • Viewer can read and react.
  • Commenter can also post updates.
  • Editor can edit content, organize work and change assignments.
  • Admin can manage access and privacy.
  • The owner can transfer ownership.

When Allow members to add others is enabled, collaborators can add people at their own role or a lower role. Review that setting when deciding who should control access.

Public work and unsent writing

Choosing Published makes the work publicly readable. Additional settings control whether other people can comment or add Socras. Use Private when public access is not intended, then review inherited and direct access.

Opening New Socra starts a private draft. Its title, authored content and message remain private until you select Send. Sending creates the saved Socra, whose privacy and access can inherit from the destination.

In an existing Socra, edits to authored content can save before you send a conversation message and follow that Socra’s access rules. Text waiting in its message composer stays separate from the shared timeline until you send it. Do not use an existing shared Socra’s content area as a private scratchpad.
