User Access : "Like" a document as "view only" workspace

Hi,

Can I give a user access to ‘like’ and ‘comment’ on an article, without having the right to ‘edit’ a document?

We currently have a ‘view only’ workspace, because we don’t want to give a user the right to edit a document, only to ‘like’ it.

Thanks,

Hi @Boye ,

Welcome to the community!

I guess by liking you mean clicking on a reaction button that the doc maker created? That’s also an edit, even if it’s a very small one.

If you are on the team plan, you can give everyone edit access but use ‘Locking’ so that by default they can only comment and interact with buttons.

Hope this helps,

Pablo

It would be only ‘Comment’ and ‘Use buttons…’.

Unfortunately the sentiment column is just a number from 1 to 5, so you wouldn’t be able to change it with the settings I proposed. Additionally, that’s not user dependent, so each user would have overwritten the previous one’s rating.

There are several ways to solve this, but by chance i have recently proposed a solution that also fits here. Take a look and let me know if that helps you

Also, i need to create a “rated” page ?

I’m assuming your ‘articles’ are in a table, similarly to the ‘playbooks’ in the example from the link. In that case you would need to create a new table for the ‘ratings’.

If each article is on a different page, then the solution will have to be more complex.

Can you share a dummy doc or provide more information about your use-case?

I had “changes table value” to my page. And “view only” for others pages.
