Password Protected Files
Securely share Editor files outside of the Organization for cross-functional collaboration and user research.
Password protected files are only available for teams on the Editor Enterprise plan.
Protecting files
Setting a password
-
Open the Share panel in the top toolbar
-
Check “Enable viewer access for anyone with a password”
-
Enter a custom password or ask the Editor to auto-generate one
-
Click Set
A password cannot be viewed after it’s set. Select the Copy icon to copy the password to your clipboard.
Setting an expiration date
Optional: click the calendar icon to set an expiration date. If an expiration date is set, access through the password will be revoked for non-org viewers when the password expires.
The expiration time and date is set in the file owner’s current time zone.
Removing a password
To remove access with a password, uncheck the ‘Enable viewer access for anyone with a password’ box. After this, anyone not added directly to the file will lose access to viewing it.
Viewing protected files
Once a password is set, anyone that has the file link but doesn’t have edit or view access must enter the password. This includes people within the same Bezi Org.
Entering the correct password will enable viewing the file only.
Editing protected files
For a non-file owner to edit a protected file, the file owner must invite them to the file and grant them Editor access. For instructions on how to do this, see the File Permission documentation [link to “add people to file” section of docs page]
