Share all records in a workspace by sharing the workspace
You can share all records in a workspace when you share the workspace with others.
Record types and records inherit the same permissions from the workspace.
Only users with Manage permissions to a workspace can share it with others.
For more information, see Share a workspace.
Share all records in a record type by sharing the record type
Records inherit permissions from the record type.
By default, record types inherit permissions from the workspace.
However, you can do any of the following:
- Disable inherited permissions from the workspace on a record type. This removes higher permissions to the records, but keeps View permissions to the workspace, record type, and records.
- Manually grant permissions to users to a record type, even when they have no permissions to the workspace. This automatically gives them View permissions to the workspace. This grants permissions to users to the records.
Only users with Manage permissions to a workspace can share its record types and records with others.
For more information, see Share record types.
