Explanation

Choose an open or password-protected Board

Decide whether anyone can view the Board or only people with a shared password.

Every community has a different information boundary. Neither viewing mode requires individual viewer accounts.

What to know

  1. Choose Open when the Board should work like a freely viewable website.
  2. Choose password protection when information is intended only for residents, members or families.
  3. Share the Board address—and password when applicable—through an appropriate trusted channel.

Good to know

  • Password protection requires Community or Community Plus.
  • Do not use a shared Board password as protection for highly sensitive personal, financial, medical or safeguarding records.
