### Enable shared boards
|
|
|
|
The shared boards feature is disabled by default in Mattermost. To enable it:
|
|
|
|
1. Open the System Console.
|
|
2. Go to **Plugins** and select Mattermost Boards.
|
|
3. Set **Enable Publicly-Shared Boards** to **true**.
|
|
4. Choose **Save**.
|
|
|
|
### Permissions
|
|
|
|
Mattermost Boards currently uses channel-based permissions, meaning that only members of the associated channel can access (read/write) the boards for that channel.
|
|
|
|
You can use this to create private boards:
|
|
|
|
Create or join a Private channel, Group Message, or Direct Message. Then, select the Boards icon in the channel header to create a board. Only members of the Private channel, Group Message, or Direct Message can access the board.
|
|
|
|
You can use the [share board](/guide/user/#sharing-boards) feature to share a read-only board with anyone (incuding unauthenticated users) who has the generated link.
|
