Join teams
Based on the access permissions of organization members to teams, Motiff supports three types of team visibility: Open, Closed, and Secret.
Motiff has three categories in terms of the access permissions of organization members:
- Open: Members in the organization can view files and join the team with Can view permission, but joining with Can edit permission requires approval from an admin.
- Closed: Members in the organization can see the name of this team but have to get approval from an admin.
- Secret: Members in the organization cannot see or find this team unless they have been invited to join.
User with different access permissions and their ability to join teams:
| Organization admins | Organization members | Guests | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open | ✓ | ✓ (View only and require approval to edit) | × |
| Closed | ✓ | × (Requires approval) | × |
| Secret | × | × | × |
Tip: When organization members join a team, they need to choose access permissions. Their final permissions are those approved by the team admin. Organization admins can join Open and Secret teams without approval and will become team admins by default when joining.
