Quick summary
Earlier in the year, we announced the ability to share spaces more broadly by allowing specific audiences in your organization to join spaces via a link. Starting today, Space Managers can change access to new and existing spaces by making them either ‘Restricted’ or ‘Discoverable’ for a select group of people in their organization as the conversation evolves.
This update eliminates the need to create new spaces in order for them to be shareable and discoverable, and also helps to ensure the spaces can be updated with the right access.
