Control Access Rights for Claaps and folders in Claap
Share a Claap or folder and Assign a Role
Open the Share popover
Open the claap or folder you want to share, then click [Share] in the top-right corner. The Share popover controls who has access and at what permission level.
Invite a member or guest
In the Share popover, enter the email address or name of the person you want to invite. Claap automatically assigns a default access level based on their role type:
Members receive Full access : they can view, edit, and manage the content.
Guests receive Can comment access : they can view and leave comments, but cannot edit.
The Share popover displays both members and guests with their respective default access levels.
Note: It is not currently possible to customize the access level (edit, comment, or view) individually for each role type. Members always receive Full access and guests always receive Can comment access.
Verify: After inviting someone, confirm their name appears in the Share popover with the correct access label next to it.
Enable Visitor Access
Understand visitor access
Visitors are people outside your workspace who are not logged in to Claap. When you enable visitor access on a claap or folder, anyone with the link can immediately view that content, no login required.
Manage visitor behavior on claaps
When visitor access is enabled on a claap (not a folder), visitors can do the following:
View the claap without signing in.
Sign up as a guest and leave comments that are visible to everyone with access to the claap.
This means any visitor who creates a guest account through the shared link can add public comments. Enable visitor access on claaps only when you intend for external viewers to participate in the discussion.
