How-to

Set or change the Board password

Protect a closed community Board with one shared viewing password.

The shared password controls viewing only. Managers still sign in with their individual PutBoard identities.

What to do

  1. Open Board access in Settings.
  2. Choose password protection and create a password suitable for sharing with the intended community.
  3. Save, then test the Board in a signed-out browser.
  4. Distribute a changed password through a trusted channel.

Good to know

  • Changing the password signs future visitors in with the new value; previously shared values should be treated as retired.
  • If protected access loses entitlement, PutBoard fails closed rather than exposing the Board publicly.
