Who sees what

You only ever see what you could open in the original app.

You only ever see what you could open in the original app. If a document, channel or email is closed to you there, it is closed to you in Louvain too: in answers, search, Today, Plate and meeting pages.

What that means day to day

  • Two people can ask the same question and get different answers. Each answer is built only from what that person can open.
  • Remove someone's access, and their answers change. Take someone out of a channel or a shared folder in the original app, and Louvain stops using it for them.
  • Admins see what they can open, like everyone else. Being an admin lets you manage the workspace, not read other people's private mail or files.
  • A collection marked Just me is yours alone, admins included.
  • Connected AI assistants see what you see, and nothing more.

How each connection is shared

When you connect a company-wide app, you choose who it serves. Follow (app)’s own permissions is recommended: each person sees what they could open there. See Connecting your apps.

A personal connection, such as your own mailbox, is only ever yours.

When someone leaves

When an admin removes someone from the workspace, their access to Louvain ends at once.
