Invite states

  • Accepted

  • Expired

Security expectations

  • Invites expire.
  • Owners can revoke access.
  • Shared users should only receive the access level the owner chose.
  • Owners should use the lowest access level that fits the relationship.

Best practices

Use Viewer for a partner who only needs visibility. Use Editor for a trusted collaborator. Use Manager only when the invited person should manage access.
