Create and manage a Room

Build a controlled project area for members, guests, files, and delivery.

01

Create a Room

Rooms are persistent project or client workspaces. A Room combines scoped members, external guests, controlled content, conversation, activity, policies, and a polished recipient presentation without granting general Drive access.

  1. 1

    Open Rooms and select New room.

  2. 2

    Enter a durable project/client name and description.

  3. 3

    Start as a draft while content and access are being prepared.

  4. 4

    Configure available security and lifecycle settings.

  5. 5

    Activate only after checking external visibility.

Manage Room lifecycle

Draft Rooms are prepared privately. Active Rooms permit access according to membership and guest policy. Archived Rooms become read-only historical records. Start dates, expiration, revocation, and scheduled automation are enforced server-side.

  • Use draft for setup.
  • Use active only after external content has been reviewed.
  • Archive completed engagements.
  • Clone or template structure instead of reopening an unrelated archived Room.
