# Share a project

> Choose who in your organization can open and edit a project.

Sharing decides who can open a project in Polymet: only you, people you invite, or everyone in your organization. To show your work to people outside Polymet, [publish a prototype](https://docs.polymet.ai/publish/publish.md) and send its live link instead.

![The Share project popover with the access menu and the people who can open the project](https://mintcdn.com/polymet/TfIzLh80_L4bW9xQ/images/docs/publish/share-popover.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=TfIzLh80_L4bW9xQ\&q=85\&s=65401c77c54a836269f1d4941519a952)

## Choose who has access

1. Click **Share** in the canvas header (the avatars next to it show who has access).
2. Pick an option in the access menu:

| Option | Who can open the project |
| - | - |
| **Private** | Only you, the owner |
| **Only people invited** | You and the members you invite |
| **Everyone at** your organization | Every member of your organization |

New projects start as **Private**. Inviting someone switches a private project to **Only people invited**. Only the project's owner can change access.

Everyone you let in can read the whole chat, including results from your [agent connectors](https://docs.polymet.ai/connectors/agent-connectors.md), and can answer connector approvals that are still waiting.

On the projects page, **Share with team** in a project's menu opens it to everyone in your organization, and **Stop sharing with team** closes it again.

## Invite people

With **Only people invited**, the popover lists your organization's members:

* Click **Invite** next to a member to add them. Once they are in, **Invite** becomes a menu with **Remove**.
* Or type an email in **Search members or enter email to invite...** and click **Invite**.

If the email belongs to someone outside your organization, Polymet asks you to confirm with **Send Invitation**: it invites them to your organization and the project at once. Only organization admins can do this. A pending invite shows when it expires, and **Revoke Invitation** cancels it.

Only the project owner can invite or remove members here, and inviting by email also needs an organization admin. See [Invite your team](https://docs.polymet.ai/team/members.md) for roles.
