How to grant and revoke Space permissions

Add members to a Space, change their role, and remove access for existing users.

Introduction

A Space is your team's shared area in KM0 Cloud. If you can manage a Space, you can invite users who already exist in the system and define what they can do inside it.

Before you start

Requirements

  • Signed in to KM0 Cloud.
  • Can manage role on the Space (or you created it with that role).
  • The person you invite must already have a KM0 Cloud account.

If you have not signed in yet, see the getting started in your browser tutorial.

Available roles

What each member can do

  • Can view: view and download files. Cannot upload or change anything.
  • Can edit: view, download, upload, create, change, and delete files and folders.
  • Can manage: everything above, plus invite or remove members, change Space settings, and manage quota.

Grant Can manage only to people you trust: they can disable or delete the Space.

Step 1

Open the members menu

  1. Go to the Space where you want to add people.
  2. Open the Members menu (icon or entry in the Space bar).

Step 2

Add a member

  1. In the members search field, type the user's name or email.
  2. Select them from the suggestions.
  3. Choose a role: Can view, Can edit, or Can manage.
  4. Click Add.

Access is immediate: the person will see the Space in their list after refreshing or signing in again.

Step 3

Change a member's permissions

  1. Open the Members menu again.
  2. Click the user whose role you want to change.
  3. Select the new role (Can view, Can edit, or Can manage).

The change applies immediately.

Step 4

Remove a member

  1. Open the Members menu.
  2. Click the three-dot menu next to the member's name.
  3. Select Remove member.

The person loses access to the Space immediately. Their personal files are not affected.

Common issues

Troubleshooting

  • No Members menu: your role in that Space does not include management. Ask someone with Can manage to raise your role or add the person for you.
  • User not in search: confirm they already have a KM0 Cloud account. New users must register before they can be added.
  • I only want to share one file, not the whole Space: use the share files and folders tutorial.
