In Home, you can manage permissions for all of your documents, workbooks, presentations, and spreadsheets.
Permission Levels
Permissions determine the level of editing available to collaborators and groups. A document Owner determines access for collaborators. Generally, document permissions are set early in the process, but they can be changed at any point.
There are three permission levels that can be assigned to collaborators:
-
Owners have full rights to the document and can manage permissions.
-
Editors can make changes to the document.
-
Viewers can view a document but cannot make any changes.
