Additional notebook permissions Optional feature

Additional notebook permissions let you grant access to a notebook to specific users or groups, separately from the basic permissions determined by folder. See Sharing for a comparison of sharing methods.

You can configure this for notebooks under the following folders.

• Teamspace
• Private

You can't configure this for notebooks under the Workspace folder.

A notebook granted additional permissions is shown in the other party's Shared folder. See Notebook for the conditions for each operation.

TIP

This is an optional feature. Depending on your contract, it might not be available.

Configuring

Configuring additional permissions requires share permission on the notebook (the "sharing with users or groups" permission in Notebook).

1. Open Share on the notebook screen.
2. Open Additional notebook permissions in the Notebook tab.
3. Select Add group or member, then choose a user or group and specify a role.

You can grant the following roles. The default is Notebook viewer.

Role	Description
Notebook editor	Can edit the notebook.
Notebook viewer	Can view the notebook.

You can also change or remove a role from the same screen. You can't edit additional permissions when opening a notebook from the Shared folder side.

Specification

• The workspace role and the notebook role are evaluated with AND. Even if you grant Notebook editor, the recipient can't edit if their workspace role is workspace viewer (see Permission evaluation rules).
• A notebook that's only accessible through additional permissions can't be deleted or moved, even with edit permission (see Notebook).
• Whether SQL can be run is determined by permissions on the target connection, not by notebook permissions.
• Moving a notebook between workspace / teamspace / private changes the scope of its basic permissions (see Folder).
• A workspace owner can view the change history of additional permissions from History (see Audit log).
