Sharing
Sharing is the starting point for all of Querri’s security features. Before access policies, column security, or any other governance layer comes into play, someone has to share something with you first.
Everything is private by default
Section titled “Everything is private by default”When you create a project, upload a file, or connect a data source, it’s yours alone. Nobody in your organization can see it — not admins, not managers, not colleagues — unless you explicitly share it.
This is the core principle: everything is yours until you share it.
How sharing works
Section titled “How sharing works”You can share projects, dashboards, and data sources with specific people in your organization. When you share something, you choose what level of access they get:
- View — they can see the data and results, but not change anything
- Edit — they can modify the project, add steps, and run analyses
- Admin — they can manage sharing settings and configure policies
Sharing + access policies work together
Section titled “Sharing + access policies work together”Here’s the key relationship: sharing controls WHO can access something. Access policies control WHAT data they see within it.
For example:
- You share a sales dashboard with your entire team
- An access policy filters the data so each person only sees their region’s numbers
- Everyone has access to the same dashboard, but each person sees their version of the data
Without sharing, access policies don’t come into play — if you can’t see the dashboard at all, there’s nothing to filter.
What you can share
Section titled “What you can share”| Item | What viewers get | How access policies apply |
|---|---|---|
| Projects | View or edit the project and its steps | Data in each step is filtered by the viewer’s policies |
| Dashboards | View the dashboard (re-executed with their security context) | Each widget shows the viewer’s filtered data |
| Data sources | Access the source data in their own projects | Row and column restrictions apply automatically |
Public share links
Section titled “Public share links”You can create public share links for dashboards and projects. These allow anyone with the link to view the content — useful for sharing with people outside your organization or with stakeholders who don’t have a Querri account.
Organization admins can disable public share link creation entirely — see Admin Controls.
Embedded sharing
Section titled “Embedded sharing”Querri views can be embedded in external websites and applications using the embed SDK. Embedded views support three authentication modes — public (share key), server token exchange, or popup login.
Organization admins can disable embedded sharing at the org level — see Admin Controls.
