How to disable access to a document link in Content library

You can immediately restrict access to a document by disabling the link.

1. Click Content library in the left sidebar and open your document.
2. Navigate to the All Links section.
3. Toggle off the Link accessibility button.
   • Note: The light gray color indicates that the button is “off”.

How to disable access to a space link

To disable access for everyone:

1. Click Spaces in the left sidebar. 
2. Click Active.
3. Select Deactivate Space.
   
   • You can also disable access to individual files within the space instead of the entire space. Learn how to manage content in spaces.

To disable access for specific individuals:

1. Click Spaces in the left sidebar.
2. Click Share.
3. Click Allow/block list in the dropdown menu.
4. Toggle Allow/block list to On to limit who can view the Space link.
5. Enter the email addresses or domains of those you want to allow or block access for.
6. Click Save.

You can disable individual files in a Space rather than the entire Space. For more details, check out our article on Managing Content In Spaces.

Note: If you're on the Advanced or Advanced Data Rooms plan, you can control what files and folders individual links (also called data rooms) offer. You can create a group with a list of approved members, or you can create and share a link to your data room.
