Teams

Teams have two things: Members and Projects. When you create a Team you also get an area where its members can create Projects, upload and share files.

Each Team member has one of these roles:

  • Viewer - can only view content and write comments.

  • Member (restricted) - only allowed to upload files to existing Projects (but not create new Projects). Cannot create Shares.

  • Member - can use all collaboration features: create Projects, upload files, create Share links, etc.

  • Admin - a Member with permission to manage Team details (like its name), memberships and roles.

Projects can be shared with Teams. Team members will inherit their roles in this case, so a User that has the Member role in the Team will have the Member role in the shared Project too.

Removing team users will not remove their comments. If the user is an owner of teams you will have to transfer that ownership before being able to remove that user.

Projects

A Project has files tab where you can create folders, upload files, and organise your assets.

Projects also have their own set of access controls. A Project is always owned by either a Team or a User. If it’s owned by a Team, all members of that Team have access to the project. But you can also add external users and external teams. You could for example use this to allow a partner you’re working with to put assets in your Project.

Sharing a Project

You have a couple of different options for giving other users access to your project. The default behaviour depends on your Plan:

  • Free, Pro, and Team plans users create private Projects by default. These are only accessible by the owner user.

  • Enterprise users can only create Team projects, i.e. there must first be a Team. Team projects are accessible to all members of the owner team.

Project members

You can invite other users and teams to your project or uploaded assets. Project members are managed in the Members tab, next to the Project bin tab. Invite new members by searching for the User or Team and click on the Invite button.

Removing project members will not remove their comments or uploaded assets. If the user is an owner of projects you will have to transfer that ownership before being able to remove that user.


Project folder sharing

Adding members to your project works really well when sharing it with people inside your organisation. Sometimes however, you might need to share it with someone that doesn’t have a KLASH account. That is why you can share folders but more about that in the next chapter.
