Athena evaluates Project access within your current workspace. To open a Project, you must be in the workspace where it belongs and have the required Project access.

​
What appears in My Projects

For most people, the Projects list shows:
  • Projects you own in the current workspace
  • Projects in the current workspace that you have joined as a member
A Project does not appear just because you belong to its workspace. The owner or a Manager must give you Project access. If you accept an invitation to a Project in another workspace, the membership is retained, but the Project remains unavailable until you switch to that workspace.

​
Workspace admin view

Workspace administrators can choose between:
  • My Projects for Projects they own or have joined
  • All Projects for every Project listed in the current workspace
Seeing a Project in All Projects does not make the administrator its owner or change their assigned Project role. A Project link only opens when your current workspace and Project access match the Project. If Athena says the Project is unavailable:
  1. Check the workspace name beside the Athena logo.
  2. Switch to the workspace named in the invitation or notification.
  3. Open the Project link again.
  4. If the Project is still unavailable, ask an Owner or Manager to confirm your membership.
Switching workspaces changes the active access boundary. It does not copy or move Projects between workspaces.

​
Access follows your Project role

Once you can open a Project, your role determines what you can do:
  • Read access lets you review Project content.
  • Edit access lets you change Project content.
  • Manage access also lets you administer members and sharing.
  • Owner access includes ownership transfer and Project deletion.
See Members, roles, and permissions for the complete role breakdown.

​
Sources follow their own location

Project access controls Project Sources, but Personal and Workspace Sources use different boundaries. Adding a Source to one location does not automatically add it to the others. See Source visibility and permissions before sharing sensitive reference material.
