--- title: Share agents and manage visibility slug: agent-platform/docs/share-agents-and-manage-visibility docTags: createdAt: 2026-08-12T15:37:11.000Z --- Share agents in Agent Platform to control who can find, run, and edit them. Use sharing to grant collaborators specific access levels. Every agent has one owner and a visibility setting. Visibility is either **Private** (only you and the people you invite) or **Organization** (anyone in your organization). When you share with specific people, you grant each person **Can view** or **Can edit** access. If you are the owner of the agent, you can grant **Can manage** and **Make owner** options as well. ## Visibility states A new agent is **Private** by default. Each agent has one of the following visibility states: - **Private** – Only you can find and run the agent. The agent header displays a **Private** badge. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/8aajBi3yr66lZKGcT2KHG_private.png" size="100" isUploading="false" position="center" width="2228" height="1010" darkWidth="2228" darkHeight="1010" showCaption="false" indent="1"} - **Shared** – Only you and the people you invite can find and run the agent. The agent header displays a **Shared** badge. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/XQGjyS_AbnlPoiXANMRFj_shared.png" size="100" isUploading="false" position="center" width="2132" height="1018" darkWidth="2132" darkHeight="1018" showCaption="false" indent="1"} - **Organization** – Anyone in your organization can find and run the agent. The agent header displays an **Organization** badge. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/aAeITRNOY4zLD-LIzOaSd_organization.png" size="100" isUploading="false" position="center" width="2234" height="1014" darkWidth="2234" darkHeight="1014" showCaption="false" indent="1"} ## Access levels When you share an agent, you assign **Can view** or **Can edit**. The agent's creator is the **Owner**. Mark provides the following access levels: - **Can view** – Can open and run the agent. - **Can edit** – Can change content and share with others. - **Can manage** – Can change content, share access, and remove the agent. - **Owner** – Has full control of the agent. Each agent has one owner. To transfer ownership, select **Make Owner** for another person. :::hint{type="info"} **Note** Only the owner can grant **Can manage** access or transfer ownership with **Make Owner**. Users with other access levels do not see these options. ::: ![](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/05U1G9g4wNdTRlt2fR34O_access-levels.png) ## Open the Share dialog The Share dialog displays who has access and the current general access setting.

Open the Share dialog. See the [Open the Share dialog](docId\:laxzyBnBQE8VCkD7f6-qu) section for instructions. 2. In **Share with**, enter a person's name or role. 3. Select the person from the suggestions. Repeat steps 2–3 to add more people. 4. Select an access level from the **Access** drop-down list. See [Access levels](docId\:laxzyBnBQE8VCkD7f6-qu) for what each level allows. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/Mywa_Q_HtH5Hzoi2Y7FyI_share-with-people.png" size="100" isUploading="false" position="center" width="890" height="390" darkWidth="890" darkHeight="390" showCaption="false" indent="1"} 5. Click **Send**. An **Access granted** message displays. The people you added are listed in the **Who has access** section with their access level. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/3NNvbyPX_PJqxf2nyWpPe_who-has-access.png" size="70" isUploading="false" position="center" width="888" height="978" darkWidth="888" darkHeight="978" showCaption="false"} ## Change or remove access In **Who has access**, manage the people an agent is shared with: - To change someone's access, select a different level from their access drop-down list. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/MTNxiIg51bo8hTnZBv57p_change-remove-access.png" size="80" isUploading="false" position="center" width="1056" height="966" darkWidth="1056" darkHeight="966" showCaption="false" indent="1"} - To remove someone, click **Remove** for that person. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/HlDKdthTIq5sx6dSwdshT_remove-access.png" size="80" isUploading="false" position="center" width="886" height="972" darkWidth="886" darkHeight="972" showCaption="false" indent="1"} Click **Save** after making your changes. The owner is labeled **Owner** and does not have an access drop-down list. ## Set general access In the **General access** section, choose who can reach the agent beyond the people you invited: - **Only invited users** – Only the owner and invited people can access the agent. With no one else invited, the agent is **Private**. When you invite specific people, it becomes **Shared**. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/WzQ5s2hCfdeULOhG82HJO_set-gen-access.png" size="90" isUploading="false" position="center" width="888" height="326" darkWidth="888" darkHeight="326" showCaption="false" indent="1"} - **Anyone in your organization** – Everyone in your organization can access the agent, which makes it an **Organization** agent. Choose the organization's access level: - **Can view** – Can open and view this resource. - **Can edit** – Can change content and share with others. ![](https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/IfQcbJ5XuEVJq1HKHdbKq_org-access.png) ## Copy a share link Click **Copy link** in the Share dialog to copy a link to the agent. The link follows the agent's access settings, including general access and the access granted to specific people. If you remove someone's access, the link no longer works for them. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/BrbvVORKJ5iIeSMZye5kI/tvkDniw6ann2p9DGHQd3V_share-link.png" size="90" isUploading="false" position="center" width="886" height="972" darkWidth="886" darkHeight="972" showCaption="false"} ## Next steps - See [Manage agents](docId\:SSeNiblVMXwVvDR_lhtvI) to find agents by visibility and manage them. - See *Create a specialized agent* or *Create a workflow agent* to build agents you can share. :::hint{type="info"} **Note** If you use Opti ID, administrators can turn off generative AI in the Opti ID Admin Center.
