Grant access to a board and share a link

Grant a role to a person or team, enable a link with a password and expiry, and revoke access.

Status: available updated 2026-10-28

When you need it

A colleague needs access to the board, someone outside the team needs to view it without an account, and after the project access has to be closed.

Before you start

  • Permission to share the board (board.share): the owner and co-owner always have it, an editor has it unless the organisation policy forbids it (allowed by default).
  • Only an owner or co-owner can appoint a Co-owner: it is a management role, and board.share alone is not enough.
  • Only the owner or co-owner can manage the public link: an editor does not see that block in the dialog.
  • The colleague's address. A role applies to members of the organisation. If no account exists for that address, remo shows an invitation link; if the account exists and the person is already an organisation member, access starts immediately. Otherwise membership comes first.

Steps: a role for a person

  1. Open Поделиться (share).
  2. Enter the colleague's address.
  3. Choose the role: Просмотр (viewer), Комментарии (commenter), Редактор (editor), Со-владелец (co-owner).
  4. Press Добавить (add).

Result: the colleague sees the board in their list and gets the chosen permissions.

This needs the owner or co-owner role.

  1. In the same dialog, find the Публичная ссылка (public link) block.
  2. Press Включить (enable).
  3. Set a password and an expiry if you need them.
  4. Copy the link.

Result: the link opens the board read-only; export and backup are not available.

Steps: revoke access

  1. Open Поделиться.
  2. Find the person in the access list and remove them.
  3. To close link access, press Выключить (disable) in the Публичная ссылка block.

Result: an open tab switches to read-only on its next action; new sign-ins are refused. No reload is needed.

Check

  • A colleague with an existing account sees the board immediately after being added: there is no acceptance step. Only someone without an account accepts the invitation link.
  • In a private window the link opens the board without editing tools.
  • After revocation the colleague cannot change an object.

Common mistakes

Symptom Cause
An editor does not see the link block only the owner and co-owner manage the link
No export through the link the link is view-only by design
Access "came back" after revocation the person still has a second source of the role: a team or the organisation
Someone outside the organisation got no access roles apply to members: invite them or open the link
