Access & preferences

Configure guest permissions and access levels.

Managing guest access in Missive gives you control over who can join conversations and how external collaborators interact with your team.

You can manage guests and their permissions primarily through the Settings > Guests menu.

Viewing and revoking guest access

Open the guests settings:

• View all invited guests.

• See the number of conversations they have access to and who invited them.

• Revoke a guest's access entirely or from specific conversations.

Configuring organization guest permissions

These settings let you define how tightly guest invitations should be controlled based on your team's workflows and security needs.

Open the guests settings:

• Enable or disable guest access across the entire organization.

• Control who can invite guests:

• Only admins and organization owners

• All members

Configuring conversation-level permissions

Even when guest access is allowed at the organization level, individual conversations can still opt out. This is useful for keeping certain conversations internal, even if your team regularly collaborates with external partners elsewhere in Missive.

To disable guest access for a specific conversation:

1. Open the conversation.

2. Click the Share Access icon or user avatars at the top-left of the conversation.

3. Click Invite guests.

4. Toggle off Allow guests.
