Sharing a Project
1. Open the project you wish to share and click the ‘Share’ icon in the top navigation bar.

3. Next, using the second dropdown menu, select which project-level permissions (Owner, Collaborator, Reviewer, Viewer) you wish to grant the selected user.
- Owner- the only role that can do all the roles below as well as baseline a document, share and delete the project, create a test cycle and unlock an entity.
- Collaborator- can read, comment and make modifications to entities only.
- Reviewer- can comment and read.
- Viewer- read only.
Note, if a user is an Admin to the organization (or the SuperAdmin), they are automatically given the Owner rights to all projects within it.
4. Click the ‘Share’ button.
You will now see that user added to the list of ‘Innoslate Account Users’ under ‘Project Permissions’ in the dialog box. In addition, that other users will be sent an email notifying them that you have shared a project with them in Innoslate. When you are finished, click the ‘Close’ button to exit the dialog.
